For .php it's 123/2313412sdfsdf/get_flash.php.

If it's not a 404, but you just don't get the content you expect, it could be that apache is not passing it to PHP to be processed. Try a [PT] flag (pass-through) on the rewrite so the URL gets processed by the rest of the configuration (e.g., the content-handler is determined as normal). -Brian -- Feel free to contact me using PGP Encryption: Key Id: 0x3AA70848 Available from: http://pgp.mit.edu/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
