Is the PHPSESSID parameter guaranteed to be the first parameter after the "?", i.e. at the very start of the query string? If not, then your modified rule above won't work. The problem with both of these rules, though, is that the final ".*" will swallow everything after the PHPSESSID= part, including all other query string parameters, which is likely not what you want to do, as PHP pages often make use of other parameters. Try something like: url_rewrite_rules: (.*)PHPSESSID=([0-9A-Za-z]*) \\1 and if the session ID can include something other than digits or letters, add these characters too to the list within brackets. You want to avoid the list in brackets matching the usual parameter separators, though, so don't put a "&" or ";" in the list. -- Gilles R.
