Problem with .htaccess and RewriteRule

I have url's like games/xbox/2

2 being the page number I need the url rewritten. This is what I'm using:

RewriteRule games/(.*开发者_StackOverflow中文版?)/$ games/consoles.php?console=$1 
RewriteRule games/(.+?)/(.+?)/$ games/consoles.php?console=$1&page=$2

The first rule works fine but the second is returning consoles.php as $1 instead of xbox

RewriteRule games/([A-Za-z0-9]+)/?$ games/consoles.php?console=$1 
RewriteRule games/([A-Za-z0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ games/consoles.php?console=$1&page=$2 

Using (.*?) would match even the / character so xbox/2 is treated as a whole

Try something like:

RewriteRule games/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ games/consoles.php?console=$1&page=$2 [L]
RewriteRule games/([^/]+)/?$ games/consoles.php?console=$1 [L]

I first put your most specific rule first - that way you don't do a general match, then a later more specific match mangles that general rewrite.

I also specified the [L] flag to signify that you want the engine to stop looking for more matches at this point. Re-ordering the rules is redundant in this case because of the [L] flag, but it's a good practice to get into.

I also changed the expressions slightly. Rather than using ([A-Za-z0-9]+) like the previous poster said, I changed it to ([^/]+) because that will match everything but a slash, so you can have weird console or game names. If you want to make it more specific feel free to, but this way provides the most general use-case.
