mod_rewrite including parameters

desperate

[Navi]

i've been trying for hours but it just wont work.

my problem is i have 2 domains.

www.oldexample.com and www.newexample.com

i want when i type this in my browser:
www.oldexample.com/index.cfm?sid=50

it should go to
www.newexample.com/index.cfm?sid=50

but i just cant get it to work, ive tried like 1000 example's and stuff tried myself but nope.

this is what i have:

RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks

Redirect ^/index.php?id=(.*)$ [newexample.com...] [R]

[Longhaired Genius]

Try:

RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks

RewriteRule ^index.php?id=(.*)$ [newexample.com...] [R=301,L]

Im trying to do this:

[mysite.com...]

to

[mysite.com...]

and it works using:

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/$category.php?cat=$1 [L]

Now - how do i do the same thing for 2 levels?

e.g.
[mysite.com...]

to

[mysite.com...]

Really need to get this done so id be very greatful for any help

Thanks!

Hi netnerd,

Am not by any means good at mod_rewrite but is it not as simple as

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/$ category.php?cat=$1;cat2=$2 [L]

I am sure someone else will correct me if I am wrong :)

Navi,

have you managed to pass the?paramters through yet. I'm having the same problem and getting 404 errors.

[netnerd]

Alternative - that works! Thanks!
