How to leaves old link - routing?

[eluser]n0xie[/eluser]
I looked into it a bit and it seems that mod_rewrite does not 'see' the querystring. This work-a-round works:

Code:

// .htaccess
    RewriteRule ^article\.php?(.*)$ index.php/article/index [L]

// config.php
$config['uri_protocol']    = "PATH_INFO";
$config['enable_query_strings'] = TRUE;

// controllers/article.php
    function index()
    {
        echo $this->input->get('id');
    }

Hope that helps.
