Hi Folks -

environment over the network? I can't imagine that would be fast for any

What version of ISAPI Rewrite are you using?
The tutorial looks as though it's written for v2; whereas in v3 it is
much more like the syntax of Apache's mod_rewrite. Which means that
the querystring is not actually seen as part of the URL in
RewriteRule, but can be accessed via a
And this assumes that the files are at your site's root, and that it's
always an EID value you're matching. (If the key value in the
querystring varies, you could use a regex for that too).
Thanks Seb!
So I could say:
RewriteRule ^calendarDetails\.html/[A-Za-z]+/([0-9]+)$
This should do the trick:
RewriteRule ^calendarDetails\.html/EID/([0-9]+)$ /calendarDetails.cfm?
EID=$1 [NC]
