Mod_Rewrite Help!

[speaker219]

Don't know exactly where I should post this.

I need to know what I should use to redirect any file with the extension .jpg to redirect to a php with the name of the file requested as a string.

For example, if someone went to:

http://example.com/pics/test.jpg

I want it to redirect to:

http://example.com/pics/view.php?img=test.jpg

or http://example.com/pics/test2.jpg

to redir to:

http://example.com/pics/view.php?img=test2.jpg

 

Sorry If this is the wrong forum, don't know where else to put it, or who else to ask.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure...

 

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^pics/([A-Za-z0-9]+)\.(JPG|GIF|JPEG|PNG)$ pics/$1\.$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^pics/view.php?img\=([A-Za-z0-9]+)\.(JPG|GIF|JPEG|PNG)$ $1\.$2 [L]

Try this,

Options +Indexes
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ view.php?img=$1

 

Place it on your pics folder.

Neither one of these work. The first one seems to do absolutely nothing, and the second one returns the 'img' variable in the url as "view.php" not the name of the image.
