    Hello,

    I will pay $5.00 to whoever can get this to work for me (paypal)

    I have links like this on my site:

    its a search so where it says &q=yahoo thats cuz i searched yahoo so that would change depending on what was searched

    http://joeyelectric.com/search/sear...f5um_o&cof=FORID:9&ie=UTF-8&q=yahoo&sa=Search

    I want them to look like this:

    I want to make the the url just show the query that was searched but still access the url above ... is this possible?

    http://joeyelectric.com/search/yahoo


    this is the closest
    i could get:

    
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule search/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/$ /search/search.php?$1=$2&$3=$4&$5=$6&$7=$8&$9=$10
    
    Code (markup):
    which makes a url like this:

    
    http://joeyelectric.com/search/cx/008406457722762222407:zeakjf5um_o/cof/FORID:9/ie/UTF-8/q/yahoo/sa/Search/
    
    Code (markup):
    What i had searched was "yahoo" <- which is $8

    I want the url to just have $8

    -John

    Yes, but I think you'll need to remove some fields from the form first.

    Is it solved?

    If it's not solved yet, try my code:

       Options +FollowSymlinks
       RewriteEngine On
       
       RewriteBase /
    
       RewriteRule ^search/yahoo search/search.php?cx=008406457722762222407%3Azeakjf5um_o&cof=FORID%3A9&ie=UTF-8&q=yahoo&sa=Search
