Paging URL rewriting not working in php using .htaccess -

i using rule in .htaccess :-

rewriterule ^online-sale on-sale.php rewriterule ^online-sale/page-([0-9]+)$ on-sales.php?page=$1

first rule working fine. eg. if phone call http://www.sitename/online-sale page opening successfully. when calling http://www.sitename/online-sale/page-2 page opening fine, can't access $_request["page"] value on page.

can suggest me problem? possible or not?

thanks in advance.

you need utilize anchor $ in first rule avoid matching paging url well:

rewriterule ^online-sale/?$ on-sale.php [l] rewriterule ^online-sale/page-([0-9]+)/?$ on-sale.php?page=$1 [l,qsa]

it advisable utilize l , qsa flags.

qsa (query string append) flag preserves existing query parameters while adding new one.
