Would anyone have suggestions on how to redirect a URL that has variables in it?
It looks like "www.homepage.com/index.php?value=home/index" would like it to simply redirect to "www.homepage.com"
I've tried:
Redirect /index.php?value=home/index /index
But it seems like "Redirect" ignores everything passed the question mark character. Is that so? Any way around it?
I am not familiar with regex, so I was hoping a simple solution is available without using that.
Thank you in advance :)
To capture Query String
like value=home/index
use mod_rewrite
Try this :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.+)=(.+)/(.+)$
RewriteRule ^ /? [L,R]
Redirect
is mod_alias
and that is designed to handle simple URL manipulation tasks. For more complicated tasks such as manipulating the query string
, use the tools provided by mod_rewrite.
