Question

I’m trying to write a rule that redirects a request to a different file/path. Here is a sample of the incoming URL: /js/library/sample.js, has to reroute to /private/package/library/js/sample.js.

I tried:

ReWriteCond ^/js/(A-Za-z_]+)$/(A-Za-z.]+)$ /private/package/$1/js/$2

I’m finding it difficult to write the rule correctly though.

Thanks.
PS. Any good htaccess/rejex tutorials, send them along.

Do this:

RewriteRule ^(js)/([\w]+)/([\w.]+)/?$ /private/package/$2/$1/$3 [NC,L]

I found these Apache ^docs sufficient to learn.
