Changing GET in url with htaccess

Question

Basically i have http://localhost/s/item?id=1

But i want http://localhost/s/item/1

Been searching around a while but can't find a way to do this exactly, is there an easy way to accomplish this? thanks

You want to implement a rewriting rule:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/?s/item/(\d+)$ /s/item?id=$1 [QSA,END]

This also means that you have to change your application logic such that it actually uses those URLs.

Such rule can be implemented in a distributed configuration file, but if possible you should prefer to place it in the actual http server's host configuration. Various reasons for that.
