i;m a mess
[ * * * * * * * ]
 Ok, try as i might, i can't get this to work.

I have the following on a host:

http://domain.com/temp/sitename/

i want it so that if you enter:

http://domain.com/temp/sitename/content/categoryname/page

it actually goes to:
http://domain.com/temp/sitename/content.ph...yname&page=page

but you only see the first url.

I can't seem to get my .htaccess to work :s
Code:
 
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^content/([A-Za-z]+)/([A-Za-z]+)/$ content.php?category=$1&page=$2


Does anyone have a clue? i get a 404 error, even though content.php is on the server.

 after a bit more searching (bah @ 40 mins in total) here is how i got it to work:

Code:
 
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^content/([a-z]+)/([a-z]+)?$ content.php?category=$1&page=$2 [L]



silly regular expressions... i had a / instead of a ? :D
