Try...

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?page=$1 [L]
</IfModule>

Where do you define the variable $page?

Malcolmhire2001 · October 30, 2007

it defined when ethier entering it into the URL address bar, if you were wanting the page "contact" it would be

http://localhost/index.php?page=contact.php

also defined a hyperlink the hyperlink would be:

<a href="?page=contact.php">Contact</a>

is this the best way around including a file useing a template or is there a better way.

Thanks, Mal

Then is should be $_GET['page'] not simply $page.
