Question

I’m new to rewrite and right now I have a genuine problem with rewrite. Here is what I am trying to do.

2/cat23/subcat104/Shoes (I am trying to change this url to products.php?p=2&m_id=23&s_id=104&pg=Shoes )

The above represents (2=page number),(23=categoryid),(104=Subcategoryid),(Shoes=subcategoryname)

Now on iterating my $_request I get this:

p => 2
m_id => 23
pg => subcat104/Shoes (it didn't separated them since the '/' was also present between them)

Now following is my rewrite rule which seems ok but not delivering the result.

*RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/cat([0-9]+)/subcat([0-9]+)/(.+)$ products.php?p=$1&m_id=$2&s_id=$3&pg=$4 [NC]* 

and I wanted the result to be:

*p => 2
m_id => 23
s_id=>104
pg => Shoes*

I checked your code and it works for me, I added your Rewrite code in my .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/cat([0-9]+)/subcat([0-9]+)/(.+)$ products.php?p=$1&m_id=$2&s_id=$3&pg=$4 [NC]

Make sure you have declared the RewriteEngine On before the rule.

The result I got from $_REQUEST was:

Array
(
    [p] => 2
    [m_id] => 23
    [s_id] => 104
    [pg] => Shoes
)

If you are still having trouble, post your .htaccess file and a var_dump.
