virtual directory

This is my current .htaccess file:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite.net
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s
RewriteRule ^forum.html forum.php [L,NC]

RewriteRule ^404.html misc.php?xtra=404 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^403.html misc.php?xtra=403 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^400.html misc.php?xtra=400 [L,NC]

I want to add a virtual directory so that when user goto

http://www.mysite.net/3

it would be known as

http://www.mysite.net/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=3

I have tried

RewriteRule ^/([0-9]*) profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=$1 [L]

after the 400.html misc.php?xtra=400 but it doesn't work.

Also, tried add "RewriteBase /" that I found on some website but still doesn't work.

Anyone has any idea? Thank you.

You have to remove the beginning slash in per-dir rewriting (.htaccess).

You won't need a RewriteBase unless you use an alias with mod_alias.

RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/? profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=$1 [L]

That's awsome.
Thank alot!

[squallions]

umm .. one more question

I like to rewrite

http://www.mysite.net/3/p2

to

http://www.mysite.net/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=3&page=2

RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/p([0-9]+)/? profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=$1&page=$2 [L]

seem not to work :(

And also, rewrite

http://www.mysite.net/3/whatever here except p2 above

still go to

http://www.mysite.net/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=3

because when i try to go to [mysite.net...] .. my image was broken because it looks into [mysite.net...]

Thanks.

The images are probably broken because your script generates code that refers to them using a relative URL-path.

Instead of using
<img src="blah.gif">
you'll need to use
<img src="/blah.gif">

This causes the browser to look for the image relative to the DocumentRoot, rather than relative to where it thinks the script is running.

Yeah. But to go back and fix all the img tag is ... a pain :(

Please help with the rewrite above.
