Try the following:<br />
<br />
RewriteEngine On<br />
RewriteRule ^artist/[a-z]+/$ /index.php?browse=$1<br />
<br />
This will do a silent rewrite (so the user's browser will not redirect and change the address shown in the address/location bar). Bear in mind that will cause a problem with images, etc, as the web browser will think it's in a directory called /artist/ which does not actually exist on your server.<br />
<br />
Personally, I think index.php?browse=artistnam<wbr />e looks fine, but I seem to be in the minority.

Thank you for the response, but it is not working correctly yet.<br />
the problem is that it's not working correctly yet.<br />
<br />
Right now I have<br />
<br />
&lt;a href=&quot;artist/c/&quot;&gt;C&lt;/a&gt;<br />
<br />
RewriteEngine On<br />
RewriteRule ^artist/[a-z]+/$ /index.php?browse=$1<br />
<br />
<br />
But the rewrite isn't working, it does not make index.php?browse=c of it.

<br />
RewriteRule ^artist/([a-z]{1})+/$ index.php?browse=$1

I understand what you mean, and I might change it.<br />
if it brings too much trouble, I will change it to normal, so thank you.

Hey guys,<br />
<br />
I want to rewrite the following link<br />
artist/c/<br />
to<br />
index.php?browse=c<br />

I know it's done in the .htaccess, I just can't figure out how to do this.
