Hey Kirupians…I have seem to have hit a brick wall adding Mod\_Rewrite to a site.

The site is PHP/MySQL driven and includes a product database. The products are arranged in a category/product format.

The Mod\_rewrite rule for the categories as shown below works fine.

[http://www.atgairports.com/C13-Installation-Services/](http://www.atgairports.com/C13-Installation-Services/)

```auto

RewriteRule ^C([0-9]+)(.*)/$ product-listing.php?i=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^C([0-9]+)(.*)$ http://www.atgairports.com/B$1$2/ [R=301,L]

```

Altho the product one as shown below just keeps bouncing back to the category page - no error or anything?..

> **[Airfield Lighting Contractor & Installation | Turnkey Solutions | ATG Airports](https://www.atgairports.com/turnkey-solutions)**
>
> At ATG we offer our customers a wide range of services including turnkey airfield solutions, designed to make the process more effective and straightforward

```auto

RewriteRule ^C([0-9]+)(.*)/P([0-9]+)(.*)/$ product-detail.php?i=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^C([0-9]+)(.*)/P([0-9]+)(.*)$ http://www.atgairports.com/C$1$2/P$3$4/ [R=301,L]

```

Any ideas as I am befuddled??
