And I agree with you on these points, but at the same time, by not recommending that the question be asked on the appropriate list first, we're not only encouraging misplaced posts, but also cheating the poster themselves. They may not even be aware that there are separate lists; a couple of times from the top of my head, responses have been, "I wasn't aware there was a list for [insert project name here]." > I could easily have waved Don away with a plain "RTFM", but I saw no real > reason. Yes, but that's you it's because you're a nice guy.

However, Don's question was of the kind that is easily overlooked on the apache list, where topics tend to be a little less basic. I tend to think that basic apache/php questions are sometimes better asked here, even if they are really off-topic. It doesn't hurt anyone, and the poster is actually likely to get a decent/useful answer fairly quickly - due to the amount of plain user/developer experience that is available here. I could easily have waved Don away with a plain "RTFM", but I saw no real reason. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Per's answer is probably exactly what you're looking for, Don. Keep in mind, though, that this isn't a PHP question. Future questions of this nature would be better suited for the Apache list. You may find sometimes that asking a question on the wrong list will be ignored. Not because people don't want to help, just because they may read it and skip over it. -- Better prices on dedicated servers: Intel 2.4GHz/60GB/512MB/2TB $49.99/mo.

Ah, you want an external redirect then. It's really a case of RTFM, but just add '[r]' to the end of your RewriteRule. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] URL Rewrite not working for me
Hi all, I've set up a url rewrite code below. Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine on RewriteRule profile/username/(.*) profile.php?username=$1 It only works when I type in this url http://www.example.com/profiles/profile/username/baller/ If i do not then the normal url http://www.example.com/profiles/profile.php?username=baller is displayed. I just want the new url to show when ever I trype in the old url. Cheers -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
