Hi...

from this solution:
RewriteRule ^/testing/(.*)$ http://myserverB/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://myserverA/$1 [P]
ProxyPassReverse /testing http://myserverB/

the original server url is fixed. In this case  http://myserverB and
http://myserverA. What if the original URL is dynamic which is passed from
parameter?
for example: 
   http://<myReveseProxyHostName>/testing/myserverB/otherPath -->
http://myserverB/otherPath

I think for RewriteRule is quite straight forward: RewriteRule
^/testing/(.*)$ http://$1 [P]
but how about the ProxyPassReverse?

Thank you very much.
