Question

I just used this code from a mod rewrite generator, but if I try to click on a link that refers to products.php it causes in an internal server errror:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)\.php$ /index.php?content=$1 [L]

Please help, I don’t even have a clue what to do here.

Edit:
I have another last question. Urls now look like this:

http://www.exampledomain.com/examplecat/

but I want to append parameters like this

http://www.exampledomain.com/examplecat/?id=5&sortcol=model&sortdirection=asc

At the moment it seems like my Rewrite Rule above doesn’t append it at all.

Answer 1

It should have been

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !rewrited
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)\.php$ /index.php?content=$1&rewrited=1 [L,QSA]
