Modify Mod_Rewrite

Sayian

Just wondering if anyone could help me with this problem ..

Currently with this mod_rewrite code, i have to type

/name/

with the trailing /

is their a way i can modify this to only have to type

www.domain.com/name

instead of www.domain.com/name/

RewriteRule ^{([^/]+)/$} profile.php?u=$1 [L]

Ive got this far, but i cant figure out how to make it work without the trailing slash.

Try this:

RewriteRule ^{([^/]+)/?$} profile.php?u=$1 [QSA,L]

I think you should add also QSA (query string append) if u variable should contain what you expect it to contain

With that code, all of my other links besides profile.php wont work

if i type www.domain.com it doesnt goto the homepage

also, any other links besides profile just send it on a loop

I think either our Apaches are configured differently or yours behave in a strange way as I post you only tried rules which worked. Where do you put these rules? May your httpd.conf be configured in a special way?
