Question

Given that i have the following url in my site: http://localhost/test/example.php?a=1&b=2

How can i specify a redirect rule in my .htaccess file, such that this url is called when i enter the following in my browser: http://localhost/test/example/1.html

In other words, if a user enters the url: http://localhost/test/example/1.html, he should be displayed the page: http://localhost/test/example.php?a=1&b=2

I have tried the following mod_rewrite code in my .htaccess file, but it does not work:

RewriteRule ^/([^/]+).html /example.php?a=$1&b=$2 [QSA]

This is the code in my .htaccess file:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/? /example.php?a=$1&b=$2 [QSA]

Note: I am using WAMP2.0, Apache 2.2.6 and PHP 5.2.5

It does not work because you have an error in your rule, you must remove the slash at the beggining :

RewriteRule ^test/example/([0-9]+)\.html? /test/example.php?a=$1&b=2 [QSA]
