yet another mod_rewrite question

Post by tecktalkcm0391 »

.htaccess file has this:

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine on 

RewriteRule ^img([A-Za-z0-9]+).image/$ img.php?pictureid=$1 [NC]

RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z]+)\-([0-9]{1,5})/$ /items.php?cat=$1&id=$2 [NC]
First one works fine, second doesn't work at all. I want it do to this: when user goes to site.com/AB-12345 it shows /items.php?cat=AB&id=12345.

Any ideas why its not working? :(

Thanks, that worked, but how do I make it so that it doesn't foward from /AB-12345 to items.php?cat=AB&id=12345 and only shows the page.

EDIT: Nevermind got it working. Thanks feyd!
But is there a way to make the AB capitizled if its entered as lowercase?
