Why is this rewrite not working?

[dkin]

Does anyone see anything wrong with this?

RewriteRule games/id/(.*)/xbox_games/(.*)\.html$ /games.php?op=detail&id=$1&name=$2

it was working a few days ago but does not seem to be working now.

Someone changed something - either their were adjustments to the file, or your host made some type of change. If you did not change anything, I would recommend contacting your host. (Rules do not quit working by themselves.)

thats what I said, because my entire site has gone haywire, I contacted my host and they said they were looking into it.

Dang, I hate when they do things like this.

Thanks for your help.

This won't change your problem, but you could speed up your processing with a few minor changes to your rule:

RewriteRule games/id/([^/]+)/xbox_games/([^.]+)\.html$ /games.php?op=detail&id=$1&name=$2 [L]

Also, start-anchor the patttern if possible.

Start anchor:

^

Example:

^games/id/(.*) ...
