Mod Rewrite - rewrite rule

I have no idea how it does that. I've never had that occure to me!!! Though I've always had for example an extension, fake directory, or / in the new URL, not just part of the URL from the script.

 

I already had the page I wanted to use on the base directory and I was told to keep the pages with the minimum amount of directories so thats why I seem to have programmed it this way.

I must say it does look pretty tidy this way as well.

 

If you put the [L] flag onto the end of the RewriteRule it will tell it that this is the last rule to be applied, and it should stop an endless rewrite

Hmmm, I had [R,L]

Would this make it redirect the URL and start the rewrite again?

 

Note to self : read the thread before posting

To stop recurrence you could put a RewriteCond in, something like

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !page.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ page.php?$1 [R=301,L]

Nice 1

Thanks for that john
