Hi,
I have a long url with various parameters used by a mediaplayer (flowplayer), that I want to simplify for visitors.
My problem is that there are various characters in the config url that seem to cause problems. The first part of the rewrite brings the visitor to the media player page, but the configuration parameters are lost along the way.
Here's the rewrite rule:
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)/flowplayer\.swf$ /flowplayer-3.1.2.swf?config={"clip":{"url":"/video/$2.flv","autoPlay":false,"autoBuffering":true},"plugin
s":{"controls":{"url":"/flowplayer.controls-3.1.2.swf","time":true,"volume":false,"fullscreen":false}}}
I'm guessing that the characters '{','}',',','"', and ':' are part of the problem. I've tried escaping them like this \{ etc, but without any luck.
Can anyone advise me on what the problem may be?
Thanks!
