Hi, i am still having some problem with getting this to work. I am not getting the value that is in the query string to appear in the header. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
I have the following url: http://localhost/test_rpc/header.jsp?tkn=abc In my httpd.conf I added the following: RewriteEngine on Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} tkn=(.*) RewriteRule ^/test_rpc/$ [E=var1:%1] RequestHeader append tkn var1 In my test, the Header "tkn" shows up with a value of "var1", instead of "abc" which is on the query string.
