Rewrite with Array-Variables

[qtx]

Hi every1

Is there a way to build a mod_rewrite rule to overcome query strings with array-variables?

I know how you can use regex to loop, but I have never seen a solution to do this with Apache's regex.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot.

How?

How?

Of course, that was not accurate, not just with regex's

I guess that there is no possibilty whatsoever without the help of a scripting language or system component.

You can do loops with mod_rewrite (for /test-0-1-2-3)

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^test-([^-]+)((-[^-]+)*)$ /test$2?%{QUERY_STRING}&var[]=$1
RewriteRule ^test$ /test.php [QSA,L]

But

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^test-(.+)$ /test.php?var=$1 [QSA,L]

and

Code: Select all

if(isset($_GET['var']) && !is_array($_GET['var']))
{
  $_GET['var'] = explode('-', $_GET['var']);
}


is probably a lot faster.
