htaccess question

[darkwind]

Hello,

I have these 2 files in the same directory
file1.php
file2.php

I'm using the htaccess rules below:

RewriteRule pagename/ file1.php
RewriteRule one/two/pagename/ file2.php

The redirection for the first file, file1.php works fine but accessing the redirection URL for file2.php shows the content of file1.php.

Any help would be appreciated.

RewriteRule pagename/ file1.php

With no anchoring the RegEx pattern says "rewrite any request that contains

pagename/

so it matches the other requested URL too.

Add the [L] flag to every rule.

Add ^ anchoring to say begins with instead of contains.

Change the order of the rules so that rules which are more specific and affect the least number of URLs are first, and the more general rules are last.

Add your non-www to www redirect rule before these rewrites.

Wow.

Worked like a charm.

Thanks a lot!
