Using "%" in htaccess

[madmatt69]

Hi all,

Trying to do a redirect, and there are several % signs in the url. The problem is that when it redirects, the % signs are stripped out, and then the URL doesnt work.

How can I get apache to leave in the % signs? I tried the [NE] flag, [L], [R=301] and various combinations but can't get it going..

Any help would be appreciated!

Using the [NE] flag is the proper solution.

Completely flush your browser cache after any code change.

You may need to 'escape' the percent characters in the substitution URL, eg. /foo.php?arg1=abc\%arg2=xyz

The "\" did it. Thanks :)
