Now, come on. I was answering this particular one, in which there are no captures nor any necessary. My solution is one line, yours is two; mine does not have to backtrack to the RewriteCond, yours does; regexpes are fast; and there is certainly some extra overhead in fetching %{REQUEST_URI} and comparing it to "/maintenance.html".On Wed, Sep 17, 2008 at 4:02 PM, André Warnier <aw@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:(you can do the latter via your regex, but it's usually simpler to guard it the other way)RewriteRule !^/maintenance\.html$ /maintenance.html [R=302,NC,L]It quickly gets unamangeable as you need to add captures (putting you into the realm of lookahead/lookbehind) and 2nd/3rd/4th escape hatches
Admit defeat, sportingly. ;-)Plus, if it was so that one needed to capture parts, you would need also several RewriteCond's, and probable variables to hold them, no ?
