I don't understand, where can I access it?

Normaly I'd use PATH_INFO and QUERY_STRING environment variables but they give "/realtorlink/education/course.php" and "courseCode=HI&cid=1&sid=2" respectivly. 

I want to redirect the user to the page they are currently on so I need to be able to retreive "/realtorlink/education/courses/HI.php?cid=1&sid=2".  All I can find is the environment variable HTTP_X_REWRITE_URL but it gives "/realtorlink/education/courses/HI.php".

I ether double the courseCode parameter or lose the cid and sid parameters.

Hi Anton,

I tried the config you gave me and it seems that %{QUERY_STRING} is a feature specific to version 3. The server on which i need to implement this runs 2.10.0.53 and changing that is out my jurisdiction. Whatever I do must work without installing new stuff.

Here is a pseudo set of rules that I wanna rewrite as regex.

Conventions used in the pseudo rule set:

$Variable name
Text to be captured
Text to be dropped
Captured or injected text

Although it may be possible to implement this using fewer but more complex rules, it’ll be easier to maintain if I implemented it as modular solution comprised of 4 separate rules as follows:

1.       Request URL starts with “http://oldDomain.com/specialFolder$restofURL”
Rewrite URL as “http://newDomain.com/specialFolder$restofURL”.
Continue processing

2.       Request URL starts with “http://newDomain.com/specialFolder?sprmName=$prmValue&$restOfQuerystring”,
Rewrite URL as “http://newDomain.com/specialFolder/$prmValue?$restofQuerystring”
Stop processing

Request URL is in the format “http://newDomain.com/specialFolder?$querystringFragment1&prmName=$prmValue&$restofURL
Rewrite URL as “http://newDomain.com/specialFolder/$prmValue?$querystringFragment1&$restofURL”
Stop processing

I would appreciate your help with this. I hope this makes sense.

Thanks,

David
