    Hi all,

    I have a requirement to change all underscores to dashes, well I have achieved that with these two lines:
    RewriteRule ^([^_]*)_(.*)$ /$1-$2 [R=301,L]
    RewriteRule ^([^_]*)_([^_]*)$ /$1-$2 [L,R=301]

    However now I need to restrict these rules to only apply to a certain page "help.php" (its in the root directory)

    I thought this might do the trick:

    <If "%{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^help/.php$">
    RewriteRule ^([^_]*)_(.*)$ /$1-$2 [R=301,L]
    RewriteRule ^([^_]*)_([^_]*)$ /$1-$2 [L,R=301]
    </If>

    But that throws a 500 error. can anyone provide some help on how to achieve this?

    thanks!!

    Hi. What happens if you change <If "%{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^help/.php$"> to <If "%{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^help\.php$"> (note the slash in help.php)? I don't really know <if> rules. I assume they are the same as RewriteCond?
