[users@httpd] mod_rewrite: skip flag and how chained lines are counted

[Alex Harvey <al...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I have been unable to find this documented anywhere, so here goes.

According to the Apache documentation: "The [S] flag is used to skip rules
that you don't want to run." Great, so I can skip N rules by using the [S=N]
flag.

But how are chained rules counted? The documentation is ambiguous on this
point.

Is the whole chain counted as a single rule or is it counted as the number
of RewriteRule commands it contains?

Many thanks,
Alex Harvey

Shouldn't this one be easy to test?
