I’ve read several url rewriting posts but nothing that helped me.

Basically on the website we have pages ending with “.html” (http://www.domain.com/page.html), and we also keep some other subdomains stuff (http://www.domain.com/subdomain.com)

So I’m trying to get this: http://www.domain.com/subdomain.com
to be redirect to: /www/subdomain.com/index.php

I tried this but there’s something wrong with it:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !\.html$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^([^/.]+)\.([^/.]+)/?$
RewriteRule /www/%1.%2/index.php [L]

I think I’m misunderstanding the RewriteCond usage but I can’t find out how to do it properly.
What am I missing?

Thanks,
Rob

    This should be close to:

    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !\.html$
RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)\.([^/.]+)/(.*) /www/$1.$2/index.php?file=$3 [QSA,NC,L]

    Note that I’ve added the last part as a query argument for the index.php.

    Oh by the way:

    And if that’s not enough:

    Two hints:

    If you’re not in a hosted environment (= if it’s your own server and you can modify the virtual hosts, not only the .htaccess files), try to use the RewriteLog directive: it helps you to track down such problems:

    # Trace:
# (!) file gets big quickly, remove in prod environments:
RewriteLog "/web/logs/mywebsite.rewrite.log"
RewriteLogLevel 9
RewriteEngine On

    My favorite tool to check for regexp:

    http://www.quanetic.com/Regex (don’t forget to choose ereg(POSIX) instead of preg(PCRE)!)
