Fix it!!

Is mod_rewrite capable of doing calculations. I want to restrict access to files based on a calculation made by a parameter passed in on the query string.

I don't think you can do this using mod_rewrite alone, unless you can come up with a way to express your calculation as a regular expression. On the other hand, you could use mod_rewrite to redirect the requests to a PHP script which would either deliver the desired document or an appropriate error message, depending on the results of whatever calculation you had in mind.
