A quick correction (or clarification, at least) for the mod_rewrite documentation. Below the chart showing the Rule/Condition processing, a sentence states: "Instead we first create a string TestString by expanding variables, back-references, map lookups, etc. and then we try to match TestPattern against it. " Yet "TestPattern" is nowhere to be found on the diagram. It might not be clear to readers exactly what's being referred to here. Adam
