Yup, it does not work (with the R flag), as I just proved in detail. :) > It's generally for flags like E= or T= that are not related to the > substitution. Well, the docs don't differentiate, and just state the dash to be used in cases, where no substitution needs to be performed, but flags applied. It does not state this to work with specific flags only. According to the docs, the intention is to apply flags. Exactly what I want to do... But yeah, I admit I do not grok the full history and intention of mod_rewrite, I just use it. ;) guenther -- char *t="\10pse\0r\0dtu\0.@ghno\x4e\xc8\x79\xf4\xab\x51\x8a\x10\xf4\xf4\xc4"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}} --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
