Options +FollowSymlinksRewriteEngine onRewriteCond %{http_host} ^pasteme\.uk.to [NC]RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url="http://www.pasteme.uk.to/$1"]http://www.pasteme.uk.to/$1[/url] [R=301,NC]RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ show.php?id=$1RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ show.php?id=$1RewriteRule ^action/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ action.php?do=$1RewriteRule ^action/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ action.php?do=$1

I thought your RewriteRules that aren't redirects had to be separated by a / :RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /show.php?id=$1RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ /show.php?id=$1RewriteRule ^action/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /action.php?do=$1RewriteRule ^action/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ /action.php?do=$1However, you also need to allow the for http://blah bit with .* ://like this for the last twoRewriteRule ^(.*)action/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /$1action.php?do=$2RewriteRule ^(.*)action/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ /$1action.php?do=$2//these first ones are funny, because you are capturing everything, including the http, and throwing it out as the id= variableRewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /show.php?id=$1RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ /show.php?id=$1//maybe like this:RewriteRule ^(.*)/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /$1/show.php?id=$2RewriteRule ^(.*)/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ /$1/show.php?id=$2

Basically, What I am trying to do is:turn my site urls different like:show.php?id=WHATEVER = http://mysite.com/WHATEVERaction.php?do=WHATEVER = http://mysite.com/action/WHATEVERHow can I do this?

[chibineku]

RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)$ /$1/show.php?id=$2 [L]RewriteRule ^(.*)action/(.*)$ /$1action.php?do=$2 [L]Try those

It still says 500 error...EDIT: See Newer Post

[chibineku]

Let's see the new file in its entirety?

Are you sure the htaccess file is the cause of the 500 response?
