Is anyone farmiliar with mod_rewite? by Baggins on 07-18-2007 at 12:22 AM


.htaccess

code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/hosted/([^/\.]+)/?$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/hosting.php?file=$1 [R]

you can see how it works now by going to http://files.1337z.com/hosted/test.htm

you can see how it is supposed to work by going to http://files.1337z.com/hosting.php?file=test.htm

can anybody spot a problem?

thanks in advance.

Try removing the first slash. It won't match in a per-directory context because mod_rewrite automatically strips off the directory prefix for you.

Lots more info at: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewriterule

Also, if you want "test.htm" to be redirected, you'll need to modify the regexp so dot characters are allowed. :p

code:
RewriteRule ^hosted/([^/]+)/?$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/hosting.php?file=$1 [R]
