requinix Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 You're too restrictive with the name. IMO allow pretty much everything and let your code find out if the name is correct or not.

requinix Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 [A-Za-z_]+ You require that the name have only letters and underscores. That isn't what you want. Change it so that it allows what you want it to allow. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/264086-url-rewriting-help/#findComment-1353837 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 No idea about IMO For future reference, that means In My Opinion. (IMHO = same with HONEST). Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/264086-url-rewriting-help/#findComment-1353845 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thara Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 For future reference, that means In My Opinion. (IMHO = same with HONEST). Thanks for it.. [A-Za-z_]+ I change it like this [A-Za-z_-+]+ But still my browser URL is same. it is not changing as I expect.

Jessica Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Wait, I think you have this backwards. The purpose of modrewrite it to accept a URL like http://www.mydomain.com/profiles/tutors/1255/Kasun+Perera and translate it to http://localhost/tutor_institute/profiles/tutors/index.php?tutorCode=1255&tutorName=Jhon Amarathunga&city=Perth So that index.php gets run. It does not change the URL in your existing link attributes.
