 * Hi Guys,
 * I’m not good with using mod_rewrite but I’m sure this will be simple for you 
   guys.
 * I am trying to rewrite a url like this.
 * [http://mysite.com/test/apple](http://mysite.com/test/apple)
 * to
 * [http://mysite.com/test/?id=apple](http://mysite.com/test/?id=apple)
 * What is the easiest way to achieve this result. This is for my custom plugin 
   so I can’t directly modify the htaccess file.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * I’ve come up with this but it doesn’t work. Any help
 * $newrules[‘^test$/([A-Za-z0-9-^_]+)’] = ‘^test/?id=$1’;
