Hi,

I'm having the following rewrite rules:

RewriteRule ^post/login/$ post_processing.php?page=login
RewriteRule ^post/login$ /www/post/login/ [R]

If I request http://server/post/login it gets rewritten to
http://server/post/login/ but by then the POST request has become a
GET request.

I was wondering if this could be done without loosing the http POST
information?

Cheers

The second rule will force apache to respond with a 302 redirect, this will
tell the browser to change POST to GET (there is no way to redirect a POST
as a POST).

Why don't you just POST to the correct location in the first place?
