I need help with some mod_rewrite rules

This is not exactly PHP but as it is so much related to Apache I considered this place the most suitable to post this question.

I want to create pagination with .htaccess so that this would be the appearance of the URL:

page 1 would be this way:
[url]http://www.mydomain.com/game/name-of-game-sef/review/[/url]

from page 2 on the URL would change a little:
[url]http://www.mydomain.com/game/name-of-game-sef/review/[/url][B]2/[/B]
[url]http://www.mydomain.com/game/name-of-game-sef/review/[/url][B]3/[/B]
…
[url]http://www.mydomain.com/game/name-of-game-sef/review/[/url][B]n/[/B]

It might also be like this, if the review was specially made for an only platform (PS3, Xbox, etc):
[url]http://www.mydomain.com/game/sef-name-of-game/[/url][B]ps3[/B]/review/3/

These are the rules I created in order to manage these URL’s from Apache and redirect the request to the proper php file:

[CODE]# for pages from 2 on
RewriteRule ^game/([_0-9a-z-]+)/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/review/([0-9]+)/ reviews.php?idgame=$1&idplatform=$2&page=$3 [L]
# for page 1
RewriteRule ^game/([_0-9a-z-]+)/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/review/ reviews.php?idgame=$1&idplatform=$2&page=1 [L][/CODE]

I’m not keen on regular expressions :rolleyes:, and only the first page can be displayed. When I click on page 2, 3, etc, it always displays the first one.

I’ve also tried testing it on a local machine with XAMPP, but in this case no matter what I do, even if I delete .htaccess, it returns a 301 error (Moved permanently) and I can’t access index.php

Could somebody please shed a light on this?? ?
