htaccess rewrite to create friendly urls

The following rule works, but it changes t开发者_运维百科he URL in the address bar, which is not intended.

RewriteRule ^network/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/network.php?networkUrl=$1 [L]

The following rule redirects, the URL stays the same, but all the images, includes in the network.php file become referenced incorrectly...

RewriteRule ^network/(.*)$ network.php?networkUrl=$1 [L]

Is there a way to make this work?

This is because your browser interprets paths as relative.

To solve this reference your images and CSS with absolute paths, i.e. <img href="image.jpg" /> becomes <img href="/image.jpg" />

Same applies for css so

<link href="stylesheets/foo.css" media="print" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/> 

becomes

<link href="/stylesheets/foo.css" media="print" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/> 

In this way all resources links works as expected when referenced from any depth as /foo/bar/baz/script.php and so on.

Setting a base href HTML tag in your page could help too:

<base href="http://www.domain.com/" />

then all your relative images, stylesheets or javascript files will be relative to this base href.
