Question

I would like to send URL requests to a PHP script which will handle the 301.
The URI’s I want to capture are dates, like 26-11-2010, without the dashes:

http://www.mysite.com/261110/ (6 digits)

What is the RewriteRule for this?
my script is

http://www.mysite.com/redirect.php?data=261110

Answer 1

RewriteRule ^([0-9]{6})/$ /redirect.php?data=$1 [L]

will match any string of 6 digits (whether they are dates or not)
