.htaccess rewrite query string as path

Question

I've searched for this question but I only come across really specific answers that seem difficult to tailor to my specific needs.

Let's say the URL I'm attempting to rewrite is this:

http://www.example.org/test.php?whatever=something

I want to rewrite it so that it appears as this:

http://www.example.org/test/something

How can I do this?

Here are some examples: wiki.apache.org/httpd/RewriteQueryString — David d C e Freitas

In order to route a request like /test/something to internally rewrite so that the content at /test.php?whatever=something gets served, you would use these rules in the htaccess file in your document root:

RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^/?test/(.*?)/?$ /test.php?whatever=$1 [L]

And in order to redirect the query string URL to the nicer looking one:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /test\.php\?whatever=([^\&\ ]+) RewriteRule ^/?test\.php$ /test/%1? [L,R=301]

If by using above code if someone having issue in trailing query string then they just need to add trailing question mark at end of the last rule, here is a updated code RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /test\.php\?whatever=([^\&\ ]+) RewriteRule ^/?test\.php$ /test/%1? [L,R=301]
i have use the same rules but its not working my url is example.com/directory1/directory2/login.php?id=8 and i want to make it like example.com/directory1/directory2/login/8 please tell me how to fix it
