Redirecting URLs using variables

[zoltan]

Thanks. That works perfectly.

I'm assuming the "([^?]+)\1" means look for a run of any character that's not a question mark and place it into the variable?

On the other hand, why doesn't it interpret the "?" as the Prox meta character meaning "any character" -- which would seem to prevent it from capturing anything into the variable.

OK. It's just not evident to me what the "&" symbol's meaning/function is here. The description of it on the matching language page doesn't seem to cover an instance like this.

Quote:A trailing \1 used in the matching expression of a web page filter captures code. A trailing \1 in a URL match or list entry does not.

Very important to know. I never realized this. So, at least something in parentheses will always be necessary to signal that something should go into the variable (for URLs and lists)?
