Mod rewrite and parameters

I have the following .htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /~hkosmidi/web/ima/admin/
RewriteRule
^.*(\.css)|(\.jpg)|(\.png)|(\.html)|(\.gif)|(\.js) |(\.txt)|(\.ico)$ - [L]

RewriteRule ^index.php$ index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^companies?err=([0-9])$ index.php?module=companies&err=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^companies$ index.php?module=companies [L]
RewriteRule ^categories?err=([0-9])$ index.php?module=categories&err=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^categories$ index.php?module=categories [L]
RewriteRule ^compcategory?err=([0-9])$
index.php?module=compcategory&err=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^compcategory$ index.php?module=compcategory [L]
RewriteRule ^products?err=([0-9])$ index.php?module=products&err=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^products$ index.php?module=products [L]

Now if I say:
http://localhost/~hkosmidi/web/ima/admin/categories

the appropriate module is loaded.

But if I say:
http://localhost/~hkosmidi/web/ima/a...tegories?err=1

then I can't $_GET the param from php. The rewrite log has:
127.0.0.1 - - [28/Jan/2008:20:38:54 +0200]
[localhost/sid#81da180][rid#838bfe0/initial] (3) [perdir
/home/hkosmidi/public_html/web/ima/admin/] applying pattern
'^categories?err=([0-9])$' to uri 'categories'
127.0.0.1 - - [28/Jan/2008:20:38:54 +0200]
[localhost/sid#81da180][rid#838bfe0/initial] (3) [perdir
/home/hkosmidi/public_html/web/ima/admin/] strip per-dir prefix:
/home/hkosmidi/public_html/web/ima/admin/categories -> categories
127.0.0.1 - - [28/Jan/2008:20:38:54 +0200]
[localhost/sid#81da180][rid#838bfe0/initial] (3) [perdir
/home/hkosmidi/public_html/web/ima/admin/] applying pattern
'^categories$' to uri 'categories'
127.0.0.1 - - [28/Jan/2008:20:38:54 +0200]
[localhost/sid#81da180][rid#838bfe0/initial] (2) [perdir
/home/hkosmidi/public_html/web/ima/admin/] rewrite 'categories' ->
'index.php?module=categories'
127.0.0.1 - - [28/Jan/2008:20:38:54 +0200]
[localhost/sid#81da180][rid#838bfe0/initial] (3) split
uri=index.php?module=categories -> uri=index.php, args=module=categories


How can I pass GET params with mod_rewrite?


thanks

The query string is not part of the object examined by a RewriteRule.
Read up on RewriteCond and find examples that look at %{QUERY_STRING}.
You should find examples in the history of this newsgroup via google.
