this is my mod_rewrite rule: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^([^./]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [L] That will rewrite

this is my mod_rewrite rule:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^./]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [L]

That will rewrite http://www.mysite.com/abc/ to http://www.mysite.com/index.php?id=abc. However, I also have a sub directory in there that I don’t want it to be rewrite. So if a directory exist, it should just use the directory. If not it will use the rewrite. How can this be done?

    Easy as pie:

    RewriteEngine On
# Make sure it's not a real directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Make sure it's not a real file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
RewriteRule ^([^./]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [L]

    Hey by the way it took me 2s to find the answer: 2s = the time to type “rewriterule file does not exist”
