[mod_rewrite] Simple RewriteRule driving me nuts

[flaab]

Hi folks :-)

 

My problem is dumb but it's driving me nuts.

 

I have an index.php that receives urls like these

 

- www.domainname.com/index.php?foo/fooaction/parameters

- www.domainname.com/index.php?articles/view/5

- www.domainname.com/index.php?contact

 

The part behind ? is called QUERY_STRING in Apache and Php and it's JUST ONE string ("foo/foo2/foo3/whatever")

 

I would like to redirect www.domainname.com/controller/action/parameter to www.domainname.com/index.php?controller/action/parameter so the "index.php?" part does not have to appear in the url.

 

I've played around for a long time but i haven't been able to get it.

 

Which is the correct RewriteRule for that?

 

Thanks in advance.

Try...

 

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]

I've tried and it does not work =)

 

Here's my .htacess

 

Options -Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]

 

The problem is that www.foo.com/foo/foo1/foo2 should be pointing to www.foo.com/index.php?foo/foo1/foo2. I've tried with this one also

 

Options -Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]

 

But it does not work either :-)

 

 

thanks anyway i'll keep trying

How are you trying to retrieve these values within index.php?

[flaab]

Hi :-)

 

The index.php is called with a large query string.

 

Example: index.php?controller/action/param1/../param10

 

The last url is the same as

 

www.domain.com/?controller/action/param1/../param10

 

Then in the php code $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] is "controller/action/param1/../param10".

 

Then I explode the query string and call the requested controller executing the requested action and passing the given parameters.

 

I just want to get rid of the ugly '?' char in the Url so it can be called like  this

 

www.domain.com/controller/action/param1/../param10

 

I will keep on trying :-) thanks

I got it!

 

Like this

 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)/?$ index.php?$1 [L]
</IfModule>

 

But now my Css links are broken and some images as well. How can I link them?

You will have to use full URLs.
