Question Mark in URL

[Joshua F]

I'm trying to make forums.ws?1 load what would be thread.php?id=1

 

The code I have is below

RewriteRule ^forums.ws?([0-9])$ thread.php?id=$1

 

It doesn't want to work because of the question mark.

RewriteRule doesn't look at the query string. If you could adjust thread.php to work with

thread.php?123

(protip: $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]) then it's simple:

RewriteRUle forums.ws thread.php

 

Otherwise you'll need a RewriteCond

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(\d+)$
RewriteRule forums.ws thread.php?id=%1

Never used the code below, so I have absolutely no idea where to put it, or how to use it. Been googling it for a while, and still nothing.

$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"];

$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]; is a PHP variable which returns the query string in the url.
