Rewrite and GET variables

Hi,

I have a little "bug" : Rewriting URL is activated, but I need to put a get variable in the URL .
For exemple : In my page contact.shtml (which is rewrited), I want to add "?to=2"

It doesn't work.

But if I had "index.php?id=21,5,0,0,1,0&to=2", it works !

Can you help me !

Thanks

how are you adding the to=2 ?

You can not use additional GET values together with rewritten forms of links. Maybe this will be available later. But I have to make some enhancements to support free GET values anywhere.

Hi Oliver,

it would be a dream to use free GET values with rewritten urls ...

but it makes NO sense to use rewrite with GET values like mycat.shtml?myval=test

It makes sense when this is possible only: mysite.com/myval.test/mycat.shtml

Yes, that is exactly what I meant

or somethin like this :

mysite.com/dummy/value.shtml to be rewritten to mysite.com/index.php?dummy&getvalue=value

where getvalue could be a standard variable.

default var for GET makes no sense - everybody would have additional values. And remember - the link is still working - also without rewrite.

It's not neccessary to have everything rewritten.
