Hey, I am looking to make a .htaccess rewrite file to change:
newProject/index.php?start=2
to
newProject/page/2
How might I go about this? Thanks!
I think your question is backwards, especially if you are looking for cleaner URLs.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^newProject/page/(\d+)$ /newProject/index.php?start=$1
I assume that your users will click on URLs like /newProject/page/2, and a PHP script at newProject/index.php will access $_GET['start'] to read the page number.
If you're using Apache 2.2.12 or later, consider using the FallbackResource directive instead. See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/rewrite/remapping.html#fallback-resource for discussion of alternate techniques.
