I am unable to carry out the mod_rewrite task for the current webapp.
  https://savannah.nongnu.org/task/?6819

There are complex cases which I am unable to realize with modrewrite. See the 
Appendix. As an example:

  /offers

    if "?id=XXX" is present  go to  View_Job_Offer.php
    else                     go to  FS_Job_Offers.php


I propose support the new URI design (see attached file) only at the new 
Klaus' architecture, but not at the current one.

The new architecture must support that URI design without the need of 
modrewrite. Realizing it directly with PHP will speed up the webapp.  Klaus, 
should we do it at the Controller?.

So, I am going to cancell the that ?6819 task.

What do you think?



Appendix
========

  RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/offers.*.id=.*$
  RewriteRule ^/offers([?id=]*)(.*) /View_Job_Offer.php?JobOfferId=$2

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*
  RewriteRule ^/offers$ /FS_Job_Offers.php$1


Steps realized by the Apache modrewrite:

  init rewrite engine with requested uri /offers

  applying pattern '^/offers([?id=]*)(.*)' to uri '/offers'

  RewriteCond: input='GET /offers?id=9 HTTP/1.1'
               pattern='^.*/offers.*.id=.*$' => matched

  rewrite '/offers' -> '/View_Job_Offer.php?JobOfferId='

  split uri=/View_Job_Offer.php?JobOfferId= -> uri=/View_Job_Offer.php,
                                               args=JobOfferId=


The problem is that the Apache modrewrite gets always as requested uri
                                       /offers
both when we request       gnuherds.org/offers?id=9
and too when we request    gnuherds.org/offers

so, the below rewrite rule gets an empty ID, $2 value:

    RewriteRule ^/offers([?id=]*)(.*) /View_Job_Offer.php?JobOfferId=$2


It seems the Apache 2.2.3 rewrite engine does not take into account the URI 
parameters!   ?id=XXX

Let me know if I am mistaken,
