Not getting Query String Parameter

Question

I am facing problem to get variable from query string. I have used htaccess redirection for my page.

I have written following rule.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+).htm$ category.php?uniqname=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+).htm/$ category.php?uniqname=$1

what this rule is doing if I type gold-plated-chain.htm is browser that I am redirect to category.php?uniqname=gold-plated-chain Now I want to pass one varible so I am doing this way gold-plated-chain.htm?page=2 but I can't get page variable on category.php i am redirecting properly but without that page variable

Thank You in advance

I /think/ what you're after is the QSA flag (see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html) which should append query strings.

Try adding [QSA] to the end of your RewriteRule lines.

You need to add a [QSA] flag to tell the rewrite engine to merge the query strings. It is always wise to add the [L] flag and specify a base. It's also wise to escape "." characters as this is interpreted as a wild card You can also combine these two rules. Hence:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase   /
RewriteRule   ^([\w-/]+)\.htm/?$   category.php?uniqname=$1  [L,QSA]

BTW, \w is just a short-hand for a-zA-Z0-9.

you should remove ^ from the regexp. It means the start of the string.
