Hi I am trying to write a simple rule that will rewrite

www.mydomain.co.uk/testing/myVar as www.mydomain.co.uk/test.asp?fred=myVar

This version seems to work fine:

RewriteRule ^testing/([^/\.]+) test.asp?fred=$1 [NC,L]

but this one (with dollar marking end of string) does not:

RewriteRule ^testing/([^/\.]+)$ test.asp?fred=$1 [NC,L]

Why not, what am I doing wrong?

Many thanks in advance.

Hello,

I'd suggest using the following:

Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^testing/([^/]+)$ /test.asp?fred=$1 [NC,L]


This will test if the file or folder exist physically and will rewrite it.

Regards
Andrew
