http://my.domain.com/3894
become
http://my.domain.com/index.php?id=3894

In this case you can use

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewritRule ^([0-9]+)/? index.php?id=$1 [L]

I have a similar circumstance, but not limited to numbers as zackandsuch was.

Basically, I am using a php script to apply a watermark to images. So, if someone requests the raw image "//site.com/dir/file.gif", they will receive the processed image "//site.com/dir/index.php?src=file.gif"

Also, if someone requests "//site.com/dir/" with no specified file, it is okay to recieve "//site.com/dir/index.php?src=" because the script has error control for an empty parameter.

Thanks for your help!

Well, damn if that wasn't easy.

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule (.*).gif$ index.php?src=$1.gif [L]

That code placed in the .htaccess of my "//site.com/dir/" will pass as a parameter anything ending in .gif.

Meanwhile, anything that does not end with .gif will return a 404.

And, "//site.com/dir/" by itself will (through other rules) redirect to index.php with no parameter.

I am a little concerned about the use of a total wildcard like (.*) but I can fine tune that later. Thank you for these forums.

RewriteRule ^(.*)\.gif$ index.php?src=$1.gif [L]

ou should use also a Anchor ^ to matk the start of the sting and escape the dot to mark it as literal tot (and not one single char)
