Question

I’ve been implementing tidy urls and querystrings into my site but can’t get querystrings to resolve AND show the page correctly – all links become relative to the ‘faux’ directory

I’m using

RewriteRule ^services/([0-9]+)/?$ services.php?sv=$1

in .htaccess

so /services/2 becomes /services.php?sv=2

but the resulting page displays incorrectly.

I can only think that it’s impossible to use relative links when using tidy urls and querystrings but I can find no mention of this anywhere.

Standard link: http://www.tomatedesign.com/sample-site/services.php?sv=2 as normal with querystring

and finally: http://www.tomatedesign.com/sample-site/services/2 tidy URL with a querystring

The RewriteRule is doing its job, services/1, services/2 and services/3 all get the correct content included on the page just everything else is broken.

Answer 1

actually I just had to include

<base href="/">

in the file to have the page resolve the links appropriately
