Simple mod rewrite help needed

[zoltan]

I have this linking structure:

myurl.com/scrip.php?a=b&c=d&....x=y

What I would like is to simply rewrite the query string and present the URL like this:

myurl.com/scrip.php/a/b/c/d/..../x/y/

How do I write the rule for this?

Thanks in advance.

Zoltan

Zoltán,

You could try this in you .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On 
Options +FollowSymLinks 
# 
# Stop going further if the "anything" before the first slash is a directory. 
# Skip this check if we did it already. You may want to add other exceptions. 
RewriteCond %{ENV:REC_TRANS} !. 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d 
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)(/¦$) - [L] 
# 
# Check that the requested file exists, but only if REC_TRANS is not set, 
# otherwise skip this check 
RewriteCond %{ENV:REC_TRANS} . [OR] 
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1 -f 
# 
# Rewrite /name/value/ pathnames into the query string, set REC_TRANS 
# environmental variable, and restart parsing of (all) the RewriteRules 
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)(/.+)?/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /$1$2?$3=$4 [QSA,E=REC_TRANS:1,N]  

You may want to check this thread [webmasterworld.com] as well, it contains some information about the impact of this recursion, and also has an alternative way of solving your problem.

p.s.: Don't forget to change the broken pipe characters (¦) into solid pipes before using these rules.
