Pls help on modrewriting : will give 6$ via paypal :)

hi guyz.,
we curently have urls in the format:
ser.<domain.com>/cgi-bin/viewprofile.cgi?ID=A123456


I would like to do a rewrite so that when i type:
domain.com/A123456
it shows the content from
ser.<domain.com>/cgi-bin/viewprofile.cgi?ID=A123456

Is this possible.,

will give 6$ via paypal for working code.

Thanks
Sarathy.s

 

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?$ /cgi-bin/viewprofile.cgi?ID=$1

In the .htaccess of domain.com or
in the .htaccess of ser.domain.com ?

Regards.,

WIll pay 15$ for a working code now

 

Alright, I tried but I can't seem to get it to work on my cgi-bin folder. Any other folder seems fine. You might wanna give it a try anyway:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+) cgi-bin/viewprofile.cgi?ID=$1 [QSA,L]

Put it in your ser.domain.com's htaccess.

 

Hi,

You want to go from one (sub)domain to another. You need to use either a redirect or you need to make the path to ser.domain.com/cgi-bin/viewprofile.cgi available under domain.com.

For the redirect, try (not tested) in your domain.com's .htaccess:

RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ http://ser.domain.com/cgi-bin/viewprofile.cgi?ID=$1

Code (markup):

For the other (better) solution, I need the path under domain.com.

I do not need $$$, but I need inbound links.

kniveswood thanks for the reply. That dint work

Hi Jean, That works, But the command directly redirects to the subdomain .

domain.com/A1234 redirects directly
to
ser.domain.com/cgi-bin/view.cgi?ID=A637134

Further domain and ser.domain.com are under 2 different servers
