rewrite query string

[Thomas Seifert]

Hi Igor,

thanks for your reply.
Actually I'd need both :).
The problem with the built in rewrite module seems to be that it can't 
rewrite the request arguments (?f=something), only the raw uri (I could 
rewrite foo.php to bar.php for example).

Any ideas how to rewrite the query string part?


Regards,

thomas
