Rewrite all directory URLs with certain exceptions

[Cristian Rusu]

Excellent, it worked

I have another urgent matter on a server live we just switched to

I need that links like this:
http://www.example.com/?v=JYH253CT

to be rewritten as http://www.example.com/v.php?dl=JYH253CT


Please help, server is down :(
