Simple RewriteRule Problem

Hi Guys,

I hope someone can help me with this. I am trying to match this url.

/videos/nice-video-.html

Code (markup):

Right now I have this

RewriteRule ^videos/([_A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ tms_redirect.php?mediaurl=$1 [NC,L]

Code (markup):

This will match this url

/videos/nice-video.html

Code (markup):

But I need it to match with the - between video and .html. I tried several variations but I can get it to work.

Thanks in advance.

 

Rewrite rule you provided will not match both of these urls, because it doesn't allow the dot sign and could match only directories without (.html) part. It seems you have another line in your .htaccess for .html handling.

 

Maby try this:

[a-zA-Z0-9\-] and add the .html


RewriteRule ^videos/([_A-Za-z0-9\-]+).html/?$ tms_redirect.php?mediaurl=$1 [NC,L]

 

Thanks for your help. I got this to work.

RewriteRule ^videos/([-_A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?.html$
