  • 0

I would like to redirect certain calls for images on a folder to a PHP file. For example, calls that come for: 

example.com/news/123-hitachi.jpg

should go to: 

example.com/image.php?i=123-hitachi.jpg

or something similar like that. It would also be cool if I would add some more variables in the URI like: 

example.com/news/345/hitachi.jpg

so that the .PHP would receive 2 or more parameters.

How can I achieve that?

EDIT:
It should only rewrite SOME pictures, for example that come with a special folder in it like: 

example.com/SPECIAL/parameter/id/bogus_filename.jpg

    This should work for your “also cool if” case: example.com/news/345/hitachi.jpg
    Requests for jpg images in /news are rewritten. The parameter i receives the image number. The parameter p receives the rest of the image filename.

    RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(news)/([0-9]+)/(.*)\.jpg$ /image.php?i=$2&p=$3 [L,QSA]
