First are my questions.

1) If you wanted to turn mp3.php?q=Query&In=Insomething would you need to rename mp3.php to mp3, and use a force mimetype?
2) If you did the above could you just type domain.com/mp3/Query/Insomething, and it will work vice versa also?


Heres what ive tried so far.

[coe]
<Files mp3>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</Files>

RewriteEngine On

# A request for this.php?that=someargument
# will be redirected externally to this/someargument
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^s=(.+)$
RewriteRule ^mp3\.php /mp3/%1? [R,L]

# A request for this/someargument will be redirected internally
# to this.php?rewrite=yes&that=someargument
# I had to add on the query string the parameter rewrite to avoid
# to create an infinite loop, but because the redirection is
# done internally the client (the browser) won't see it
RewriteRule ^mp3/([^/]+)/?$ /mp3.php?q=([^/]+)&in=([^/]+) [L]
[/code]

But it doesn't fully work


Thanks.
