Question

I’m writing a CMS in PHP, and now I’m working at the themes feature. I have a .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*)$ index.php?m=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*)/(.+)$ index.php?m=$1&p=$2

If I have a request to:

/page

it must load the view function of the class called page.

If I have a request to:

/page/test

it must load the view function of the class called page, with the parameter ‘test’.
This all works,

But I want it to apply the RewriteRules ONLY if the request does NOT start with:

/THEMES/

So I can apply CSS styles etc…

Can anyone help me? Thanks.

You could use an additional rule to stop the rewriting process:

RewriteRule ^THEMES/ - [L]
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*)$ index.php?m=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*)/(.+)$ index.php?m=$1&p=$2
