I have a site that shows weather forecasts. I would like create a
RewriteRule to redirect to the proper URL when someone appends their zipcode
to the base url.
i.e. http://weather.domain.com/12345 ->
http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/weather/weather.pl?zip=12345
So far, I have tried several methods but cannot get it to work. Here are my
current rules in the .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/([^/]*)
http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/weather/weather.pl?zip=$1 [PT,QSA]
I have also tried each of the following:
RewriteRule ^/([^/][0-9])
http://www.searching.com/cgi-bin/weather/weather.pl?zip=$1 [PT,QSA]
RewriteRule ^/([^/][0-9]{5})
http://www.searching.com/cgi-bin/weather/weather.pl?zip=$1 [PT,QSA]
RewriteRule ^/([0-9]{5})
http://www.searching.com/cgi-bin/weather/weather.pl?zip=$1 [PT,QSA]
RewriteRule ^/([0-9])
http://www.searching.com/cgi-bin/weather/weather.pl?zip=$1 [PT,QSA]
None of these have worked. I simply get a 404 Not Found error. However, I
know that mod_rewrite is working as I had another rule in place for
redirecting anything that goes to that page to the default URL.
Any ideas?
