    Hello,
    I'm using the following rewrite in my search engine:
    RewriteRule ^news/(.*) news.php?query=$1
    Instead of processing (.*) as the search query, it is processing news/(.*). So, everytime a search is done, news/searchquery gets added to the database. Only the search query should be added.
    Does anyone know why this is happening, and how I can fix it?

    Luke
