Cannot match / in mod_rewrite

Question

I have a set of rewrite rules (in a .htaccess) something like this:

RewriteRule ^list/vendor/(.*)$ list.php?vendor=$1
RewriteRule ^list/product/(.*)$ list.ph         


        

Answer 1

Bah, I found it... Apache option AllowEncodedSlashes, which cannot be set per directory or from .htaccess, and which is Off by default.

Build-a-workaround time, if I can't get the hosting guys to turn it on in my virtual server.
