Dynamic .htaccess

I am trying to make the site dynamic based on two parameters:

RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)$ /category.php?type=$1&query=$2 [L]


www.url.com/producer/him

but when I put that in,

none of my dir work, such as
/images


so how can I get around this without putting a word indicator in url or typing out every option in htaccess?

Thanks.

 

When you say no typing out every option, you mean you don't want somthing like this, which works ?

RewriteRule ^(images|any-other-dirs|folder) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)$ /category.php?type=$1&query=$2 [L]

Code (markup):

 

ya that still 404's my images/ dir

using

RewriteRule ^(images|any-other-dirs|folder) $1 [L](I want to exclude these from being rewritten)


RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ /category.php?type=$1&query=$2 [L]


thanks in advance

 

thanks just fyi

RewriteRule ^(images) - [L]

worked..

 

i dont understand:S

 

I'd be interested to see what Apache placed in the error/access logs for the request that 404'd.
