Rewrite to page not in root..

[Jerec]

This is probably an easy answer for most, but mod_rewrite is still a lot of black magic to me.. I'd like.. http://blargh.com/attachments/99d7c5cd00cf8cb27cebabad100d594546cc4eb227aac7f4d243877be130a498 (last part is file hash) to be processed as.. http://blargh.com/attachments/index.php?a={above file hash here} and this is what I've put into .htaccess (which is located at the root).. RewriteRule ^attachments/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$ /attachments/index.php?h=$1 [NC,L] The result I get is essentially nothing, as though the rule wasn't there, but chances are I just plain did it wrong. Thanks!

To be honest, I prefer IIS, it's a lot easier to use as it has a management panel for you to use for rewrite rules.

 

I'll have a look, but i suggest you look at some mod_rewrite tutorials and get a basic knowedge before you try to do advanced rules, for example, not allowing images etc.
