Hi, Im having trouble with defining some rules. This is the layout: I want to send some GET vars in the URL like this: http://localhost/a-1,b-2,c-3,d-4/ Based on this format, the rewriting engine should forward the request like this: http://localhost/index.php?a=1&b=2&c=3&d=4 I know I can write a rule like this: RewriteRule /a-([0-9]+),b-([0-9]+),c-([0-9]+),d-([0-9]+) /index.php?a=$1&b=$2&c=$3&d=$1 The problem is that one or more of these vars can be missing (some of them are filters, order by data info) or can be send in a different position than the one defined by the rule, something like this: http://localhost/d-1,a-2/ (should rewrite to http://localhost/index.php?d=1&a=2) or http://localhost/c-1/ (should rewrite to http://localhost/index.php?c=1) The hard way, as I see it, is to take into account all combinations / possibilities and write a rule for each and every case. Im not a even close to be a mod_rewrite fair user but I know there should be an easier (optimised) way of doing this.
I asume that the order in which index.php gets its parameters is not that imporant. You could then do something like this: RewriteRule (.*),?([a-z])-([0-9]+)$ $1?$2=$3 [N,QSA] This will strip one letter-number pair of your URL, and add it to the query string. The "N" flag than makes rewrite rule processing start over again, until the rule no longer matches. Krist -- krist.vanbesien@xxxxxxxxx Bremgarten b.
