mod rewrite url help needed [RESOLVED]

[AdRock]

I have decided to split my image gallery into categories but am having trouble rewriting the urls for it.

When I click on an image I'm not getting redirected to the proper page

this is the code for the thumbnails

[code]<h2>Image Gallery</h2>
<?php
define ("NUMCOLS",4);

include_once("../includes/connection.php");

$res = mysql_query("SELECT id,thumb FROM images WHERE cat='jack'");

$count = 0;
echo "<TABLE border=0 id='gallery'>";
while (list($id,$thumb) = mysql_fetch_row($res)) {

    if ($count % NUMCOLS == 0) echo "<TR>\n";  # new row

    echo "<TD><a href='/gallery/jack/image/$id'><img src='/images/gallery/thumbs/$thumb' style='border:none'></a></TD>\n";
    $count++;

    if ($count % NUMCOLS == 0) echo "</TR>\n";  # end row
}

# end row if not already ended

if ($count % NUMCOLS != 0) {
   while ($count++ % NUMCOLS) echo "<td>&nbsp;</td>";
   echo "</TR>\n";
}
echo "</TABLE>";
?>[/code]

this is the code that is supposed to display the image
[code]<div style="text-align:center">
<?
//REMEMBER TO CONNECT TO DATABASE!

include_once("includes/connection.php");

//**EDIT TO YOUR TABLE NAME, ECT.

$t = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `images`");
  if(!$t) die(mysql_error());
   
$a                = mysql_fetch_object($t);
$total_items      = mysql_num_rows($t);
$limit            = $_GET['limit'];
$cat              = $_GET['cat'];
$page             = $_GET['id'];

//set default if: $limit is empty, non numerical, less than 1, greater than 50
if((!$limit)  || (is_numeric($limit) == false) || ($limit < 2) || ($limit > 50)) {
     $limit = 1; //default
}
//set default if: $page is empty, non numerical, less than zero, greater than total available
if((!$page) || (is_numeric($page) == false) || ($page < 0) || ($page > $total_items)) {
      $page = 1; //default
}

//calcuate total pages
$total_pages     = ceil($total_items / $limit);
$set_limit          = $page * $limit - ($limit);
$count = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM images");

//query: **EDIT TO YOUR TABLE NAME, ECT.

$q = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM images WHERE id = '$page'");
  if(!$q) die(mysql_error());
     $err = mysql_num_rows($q);
       if($err == 0) die("No matches met your criteria.");
$numofrows = mysql_num_rows($q);

//show data matching query:
while($code = mysql_fetch_array($q)) {
    echo "<p><b>".$page."</b> of <b>".$count1 = mysql_result($count,0,0)."</b></p>";
    echo "<img src='/images/gallery/large/".$code['image']."'><br/><br/>";
}

$id = urlencode($id); //makes browser friendly

//prev. page: **EDIT LINK PATH**

$prev_page = $page - 1;

if($prev_page >= 1) {
  echo("&lt;&lt;<a href=/gallery/$cat/image/$prev_page>Prev. </a>");
}

//Display middle pages: **EDIT LINK PATH**

echo "<b>".$page."</b>";

//next page: **EDIT THIS LINK PATH**

$next_page = $page + 1;
if($next_page <= $total_pages) {
   echo("<a href=/gallery/$cat/image/$next_page> Next</a> &gt;&gt;");
}

//all done
?></div>[/code]

and here is my mod rewrite .htaccess
[code]Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9\-_]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1
RewriteRule ^gallery/([A-Za-z0-9\-_]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1&id=$2
RewriteRule ^gallery/([A-Za-z0-9\-_]+)/([A-Za-z0-9\-_]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1&cat=$2&id=$3
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9]+)/([0-9\-_]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1&pagenum=$2
RewriteRule ^admin/([A-Za-z0-9\-_]+)/?$ admin/index.php?page=$1 [L][/code]

I'm pretty sure the .htaccess is ok becuase it does the rewrite properly.  I think it's to do with the way the urls are rewritten n the php.  It works when i have a single gallery  ???
