Easy question about mod_rewrite on friendly urls

[expertmax1]

Hi, i want my page to display :

Code: Select all

http://localhost/hey/ho/

using :

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1&id=$2

The result should be that i can use :

Code: Select all

http://localhost/hey/

and

http://localhost/hey/ho/

Thank you ! Maxime.

Your regular expression only matches /something/something.

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

# Don't match existing files.
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
# Don't match existing directories.
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ /index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L]

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /index.php?page=$1&id=$2 [QSA,L]

Or in one rule

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)(?:/([^/]+))?/?$ /index.php?page=$1&id=$2 [QSA,L]

Sorry some more info

the above URLs will translate to

http://www.example.com/?a=root
http://www.example.com/?a=root&b=sub
http://www.example.com/?a=root&b=sub&c=subsub

Thanks

(?:/([^/]+))? is repeated and nested (?:/([^/]+)here)?

Code: Select all

^([^/]+)(?:/([^/]+)(?:/([^/]+))?)?/?$
