Hello,

I'm having some problems with mod_rewrite.

My code is this:


RewriteEngine on

RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^index.php?page=(.*)$ index.php?page=$1

RewriteRule ^(.*).php$ index.php?page=$1

I can load file.php and get what I got at index.php?page=page but I can't load index.php?page=page anymore it returns to index.php like $_GET isn't working anymore.

For one thing, you're missing a CRUCIAL part of the command string..

You need an [L] at the end of your last line...

and then you need [QSA] on the end of the lines above..I'M just guessing right now that this is all you need to fix your problem though... but give it a try:


RewriteEngine on

RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^index.php?page=(.*)$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA]

RewriteRule ^(.*).php$ index.php?page=$1[L]

here's a reference link to apache mod_rewrite: http://www.apacheref.com/ref/mod_rewrite/RewriteRule.html

Also here's a site/forum posting on the topic to check out: READ THE LAST ITEM POSTED - the guy ended up solving his own problem:

As far as $_GET not working, I almost wonder if depending on how you rewrite your url, you may be getting rid of the $_GET variables in the URL,eh?

You may have to get your variable values from the Path Info of the URL....
for example, you could have a URL of:

http://www.jmrtechnet.com/index.php/article/16

Then use some PHP code to get your vars:

$pathInfo = explode("/", $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']);

Hope this helps
