I'm trying to figure out how to do an apache <code>mod_rewrite</code> to remap <code>$_GET</code>. What I'm trying to accomplish: Currently, to get to the page one would have to go to <code>http://www.domain.com/index.php?URL=pages/the-page.php</code> I would like this to work in 2 ways: If someone goes to <code>domain.com/the-page</code>, it takes them to the above but keeps it looking like this. Secondly, if someone goes to the <code>http://www.domain.com/index.php?URL=pages/the-page.php</code>, it will still show as <code>domain.com/the-page</code>, keeping the URL short and clean. Most Recently Tried Code <pre><code>Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/index\.php$ RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} URL=pages/([a-z0-9-_]+)\.php$ RewriteRule ^(.*) /%1 </code></pre> I'm pretty sure I setup everything right in the apache <code>httpd.conf</code>. I'm using XAMPP to test locally, restarted apache on changes, still nothing. Where am I going wrong? I would prefer to handle this in .htaccess I am using XAMPP localhost and trying on live server. Log File: <code> 127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:16:50:43 --0400] [localhost/sid#2f3140][rid#3b14068/initial] (3) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] strip per-dir prefix: C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/index.php -> index.php</code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:16:50:43 --0400] [localhost/sid#2f3140][rid#3b14068/initial] (3) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] applying pattern '^(.*)' to uri 'index.php'</code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:16:50:43 --0400] [localhost/sid#2f3140][rid#3b14068/initial] (1) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] pass through C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/index.php</code> Updated log with Olaf's script (last rule commented out) <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (3) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] strip per-dir prefix: C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/index.php -> index.php</code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (3) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] applying pattern '^' to uri 'index.php'</code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (3) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] strip per-dir prefix: C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/index.php -> index.php</code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (3) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] applying pattern '^index\.php$' to uri 'index.php'</code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (2) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] rewrite 'index.php' -> '/newhome?'</code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (3) split uri=/newhome? -> uri=/newhome, args=<none></code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (2) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] explicitly forcing redirect with http://localhost/newhome</code> <--this one seems to be causing the issue <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (1) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] escaping http://localhost/newhome for redirect</code> <code>127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2013:20:02:24 --0400] [localhost/sid#2e3140][rid#3b14090/initial] (1) [perdir C:/xampp/htdocs/cdi/] redirect to http://localhost/newhome [REDIRECT/302]</code> Thank you everyone that is helping. I've spent 2 days trying to get this to work!!!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
