apache - RewriteRule for nicer URL -

i want redirect queries

www.example.com/mysite/post/3/title-of-the-post

www.example.com/mysite/display.php?id=3

by setting .htaccess file @ root of www.example.com/mysite/. tried :

.htaccess file ---------------  rewriteengine on rewriterule ^post/([0-9]+)/* index.php?id=$1 [l]

why doesn't work? how set rewriterule in situation? need add more lines single line in .htaccess ?

you don't need * (which should .*) @ end because you're not ending expression $. can instead:

rewriterule ^post/([0-9]+)/ index.php?id=$1 [l]

if want close expression, use this:

rewriterule ^post/([0-9]+)/.*$ index.php?id=$1 [l]
