mod_rewrite /$variable/file.php

Question

I've been trying to attempt this, but I am unable to yield any results. I'm trying to rewrite a variable into a "directory" in the url to multiple files.. I better explain this is what I mean.

Without the rewrite:

/index.php?var=test

/admin/panel.php?var=test

/faq.php?var=test

/directory/test.php?var=test

With the rewrite:

/test/index.php

/test/admin/panel.php

/test/faq.php

/test/directory/test.php

I'd like to be able to pass other variables to the files as well.. example:

/test/index.php?user=1&session=1233445

I realize that I could do a rewrite rule for every physical file and directory.. but I want it to be dynamic so if I add files to my site I don't have to keep editing the .htaccess file. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Try:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/(.*?/?)(index|panel|faq|test)\.php$ /$2$3.php?var=$1 [L,QSA]
