Re: Maintaing the URL when Rewriting

["Naveen Sharma" <mailatnaveen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Scott,

 

 

I want the URL to be visible as

http://dev.home.en/hawaii-hotels but internally it should use

http://dev.home.en/action?city=hawaii.

 

I have used this

RewriteEngine On
 RewriteRule ^/([a-zA-Z]*)(-)(hotels)/ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/action?city=$1

 

This changes the URl to

http://dev.expedia.jp/action.do?city=hawaii

 

Please suggest as to how this URL can be preserve while internally hiting an action.

 

Thanks,

Navin

I think you need to be a little more specific in your request. Do you
mean that you want the internally processed URL to remain the same, or
the URL that the end user is seeing?

If its the latter, then Martijn's example does that fine.

Scott.
