apache mod_rewrite module guide - part 1

mod_rewrite is an Apache module that allows for server-side manipulation of requested URLs. Incoming URLs are checked against a series of rules. The rules contain a regular expression to detect a particular pattern.

This process continues until there are no more rules left or the process is explicitly told to stop.
