URL Rewriter Redirect question.

[rEd86]

Greetings.

This is a more general programming question. I need to redirect queries coming into my server from:

http://pdf.servername.com/filename.pdf

to

http://pdf.servername.com/pdf.php?id=filename

so that my code can generate a PDF on the fly. My redirect skills are pretty rusty so I was hoping some expert out there could refresh my memory and save what little hair I have left... Here's what I tried:

RewriteRule ^(/*)(.pdf)$ [URL]http://%1/pdf.php?id=$1[/URL] [NC,R=301]

Thanks!
