I already have this rule in place somewhere else, but I need to have something which works the other way around. The rule you proposed (which I already use) does this: http://mysite.com/pages/1234 -> http://mysite.com/pages?id=1234 But I need some rule to do this: http://mysite.com/pages?id=1234 -> http://mysite.com/pages/1234 And since mod_rewrite does not parse the query string, I have a problem here. The background is the following: I have a dynamic site, for which I can do this: http://mysite.com/pages?id=1234 -> http://mysite.com/cgi-bin/show.pl?id=1234 using a rule similar to the one you proposed. But I need to create a static version of the site (for distribution on CD), which should work without Perl scripts involved. So I cannot do http://mysite.com/pages?id=1234 -> http://mysite.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?id=1234 and have redirect.pl redirect to the /html/1234.html file. This needs to be done by Apache.
