Hi all,
Have a unique URL-rewriting situation in Apache.
I need to be able to take a URL that starts with
"\u002f[X]"
or
'\u002f[X]"
Where X is the rest of some URL, and substitute the text
"\u002fmeis2\u002f[X]
I'm not sure how the Regex works in Apache -- I think it's the same as Perl 5? -- but even then I'm a little unsure how this would be done. My hunch is that it has to do with Regex grouping and then using $1 to pull the variable out, but I'm entirely unfamiliar with this process in Apache.
Hoping someone can help -- thanks!
