php - Two-language site and showing variables by .htaccess -

i have such files: index.php

<?php echo $_request['cat_id']; echo "***"; echo $_request['page']; ?> 

and .htaccess

<ifmodule mod_rewrite.c> rewriteengine on  rewritebase / rewriterule ^ru/ index.php rewriterule ^ua/ index_ua.php rewriterule ^ru/(.*)/ index.php?cat_id=$1 rewriterule ^ua/(.*)/ index_ua.php?cat_id=$1 rewriterule ^ru/(.*)/([0-9]+)/ index.php?cat_id=$1&page=$2 rewriterule ^ua/(.*)/([0-9]+)/ index_ua.php?cat_id=$1&page=$2 rewriterule ^(.*)/ index.php?cat_id=$1 rewriterule ^(.+)/([0-9]+)/ index.php?cat_id=$1&page=$2 </ifmodule> 

http://site2.com/ru/stranica/2/ shows:

index.php/stranica***2

http://site2.com/ru/stranica/ shows:

index.php/stranica***

http://site2.com/ru/ shows:

index.php***

why $_request['cat_id'] show index.php, instead stranica ? thanks!

it because regex using greedy .* pattern , not using anchors needed.

you can use these rules:

<ifmodule mod_rewrite.c> rewriteengine on  rewritebase /  rewritecond %{request_filename} -f [or] rewritecond %{request_filename} -d rewriterule ^ - [l]  rewriterule ^ru/?$ index.php [l,qsa] rewriterule ^ua/?$ index_ua.php [l,qsa] rewriterule ^ru/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?cat_id=$1 [l,qsa] rewriterule ^ua/([^/]+)/?$ index_ua.php?cat_id=$1 [l,qsa] rewriterule ^ru/([^/]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ index.php?cat_id=$1&page=$2 [l,qsa] rewriterule ^ua/([^/]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ index_ua.php?cat_id=$1&page=$2 [l,qsa] rewriterule ^([^/]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ index.php?cat_id=$1&page=$2 [l,qsa] rewriterule ^([^/]+)/?$ index.php?cat_id=$1 [l,qsa] </ifmodule>
