Apache Lookback Feature

Hi,

We all know the Apache lookback feature is great. For example, I can have widgets.com/models/number6/size3 go to widgets.com/models/ and then get the variables "number6" and "size3" from the URL.

What I would like to do though, is have the lookback feature go all the way back to index page rather than the models page

widgets.com/models/number6/size3
goes to widgets.com/

so that I would have all three variables "models", "number6" and "size3" to work with.

Is it possible to have the lookback feature, or some other method, do this? And if so, how?

Thank you in advance.
Ron

I assume you're talking about Apache's rewrite rules.

Sure, you can redirect to any page, with or without parameters.

Yes, but would I be able to "grab" the variables I am attempting to pass along in the url?

Yes. You may want to have a look at the Apache Forum Charter [webmasterworld.com]. There are quite a few links at the bottom of the Charter to help you get off the ground.
