Hey,
mod_rewrite is the swiss army knife of web deployment, so how could this be
OT? ;-)
Firstly, you're missing a question mark in your rewrite rule, every request
will at least start with a SLASH (/) and then adding QSA to your rewrite
rule might help in passing over query strings.
(QSA = QeryStringAppend)
^ matches the begining of the requested URI which will always start with a
slash as in:
http//www.apple.com/hardware
^ protocol
^ host
^ requested URI including /
So give this a try:
RewriteRule ^/oldpage.php(.*) newpage.php?$1&otherid=0 [QSA,R]
^ ^ ^^^
this is needed you missed this this QSA is new
or even
RewriteRule ^/oldpage.php(.*) newpage.php?$1&otherid=0 [QSA,R=301]
(R=301 makes the redirect a PERMANENT redirect)
I'd even go so far to add a Rewrite Condition, so the rule doesn't have to
be run for all requests:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/.*\.php.* [NC]
RewriteRule ^oldpage.php(.*) newpage.php?$1&otherid=0 [QSA,R=301]
([NC] turns on case insensitivenes on the matches so .PHP=.php etc.)
Also to debug problems with ModRewrite, it realy helps turning logging on to
see what is actualy happening:
RewriteLog "/var/log/httpd/rewrite.log"
RewriteLogLevel 13
(just comment the logging out when you're done testing)
