Thanks for pointing that out. Quoting the entirety of the flags works. Would be great to get that into the documentation. https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/flags.html#flag_b >> Thanks for the suggestion.

After some additional experiments I was leaning towards "[R,B= +,...]" since a plus character would otherwise be confused with space (was actually a bug before when using [R, ...]). However, the plus character will then be double escaped into %252b.

That would be great in order to maintain the historical behavior and keep a simpler syntax (but the plus character is still a challenge). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org
