.htaccess and Include

I am currently using .htaccess as below to make "fake" htm files with php.

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^pages/(.*).htm /index.php?page=$1&pages=1
However I have encounted a problem when I am trying to include php files to my script.
Say template.php is stored at mysite.com/template.php and it is being included with

Code: Select all

include('template.php');
if I hit mysite.com/index.php?page=home&pages=1 it works fine.
However if I hit mysite.com/pages/home so I am relying on htaccess it returns a include fail, file not found.

How on earth do I get around this?

Your include statement is pointing to the wrong directory level.
Should be: include('../template.php')

What if you try pages- instead of pages/ which makes it think there's a directory.

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^pages-(.*).htm /index.php?page=$1&pages=1
