I’m trying to pass an URL as a parameter in mod-rewrite. I guess there is a problem in my Regex. This my .htaccess:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
 RewriteEngine on
 RewriteRule **^go/((http:\/\/)+[A-Za-z0-9\-]+[\.A-Za-z])/?$** feedmini.php?url=$1 [L]
</IfModule>

the URL I want to pass looks like http://www.aaaa.com/aaa/?q=v but when ever I try to reach it on go/http://www.aaaa.com/aaa/?q=v I get an 404 error page. I’ve also tried with **^go/([A-Za-z0-9\-\/:]+[\.A-Za-z]+)/?$** but then the URL i pass gets like this: http:/www.aaaa.com/aaa/ (observe the singel ‘/’ after ‘http:’);

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance
/Ale

    Well your first problem (in your first code block) is that your Regex pattern will not match a URL since it will only match a string that begins with http:// then contains nothing but alphanum or dashes, which ends with a single fullstop or letter. Perhaps this is simply a typo and there should be a quantifier in there, but even so it would fail to match a very large percentage or URLs.

    This may seem a little strange, but try this…

    RewriteRule ^go/http:/(.*)/?$ feedmini.php?url=http://$1 [R=302,L]
