MOD Rewrite from php to HTML

[BNetwork]

hello,
Even though i joined sometime ago and I am new to this I have a problem which i was looking all around for sometime for some tips on specific modrewrite examples/tips but am unable to get it to work. here is what i want to do

I want
mysite . com / index . php ? type = limestones & fileid = 130

to convert to
mysite . com / limestones / name-of-the-stones . html

I managed to do
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^stones/([^/]+)/([^/]+) . html /index . php?action=$1&id=$2 [NC]

this but this doesn't do what i exactly want and show as the images are missing. I am pretty knew to rewrite rules and would appericate any guidance.

If the browser is having trouble rendering the html page because it cannot load the images, then you need to alter the html.

If the url in the browser address bar is
mysite . com / limestones / name-of-the-stones . html

Then the browser will resolve any relative urls using
mysite . com / limestones /
as the base.

Eg, if you have an <img src="images/foo.jpg"> then the browser will look for the image at
mysite . com / limestones /images/foo.jpg

Personally, I like using absolute urls, although I use the shorthand.
absolute: src="http://example.com/images/foo.jpg"
or src="/images/foo.jpg"

Note the leading /, the browser treats this as being absolute, but for the same domain that its currently on.

thank you for your reply. very helpful. so there is no rewrite rule set a base for these image or templates ? I think i'll try the way you explained.

one thing about the urls, i am not actually getting the urls exactly that way either. the way i am getting the url is
mysite . com / limestones / 130 . html

but i'd like it to be
mysite . com / limestones / name-of-the-stone . html

i read in apache modrewrite that you could pass anything after the FILEID ( $2 ) and make it look like
mysite . com / limestones / 130-name of the stone .html

but i am yet to find an example for this and i am actually shooting for more like
mysite . com / limestones / name-of-the-stone . html
or
mysite . com / limestones / name-of-the-stone-130 . html

is there any rule to convert "the stone name" ( fileid = $2 ) to a "name-of-thes-tone" ?

i'd appericaite any kind of tips on these.
