overriding url rewriting for $_GET variables

I have a page in my admin system with the following path:

http://192.168.1.253/xxxxxx/admin/view/news-items/issue/3

I am trying to rewrite it so that it directs to:

http://192.168.1.253/xxxxxx/admin/view/news-items.php?issue=3

However I cannot seem to make it work, as the page displays but the php cannot detect a $_GET variable. I have 2 .htaccess files, one in the xxxxxx directory and one in the admin directory. here they are:

xxxxxx:

RewriteEngine On    # Turn on the rewriting engine

RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/delete/(1-9)/?$ $1.php?delete=$2 [L]
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/?$ $1.php [L] # rewrite without query string parameters
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/?$ $1.php\#$2 [L] # one name string parameter

admin:

RewriteEngine On    # Turn on the rewriting engine

RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/?$ $1.php [L] # rewrite without query string parameters
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/(\d+)/?$ $1.php?id=$2 [L] # one id parameter
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/issue/(\d+)/?$ $1.php?issue=$2 [L] # one issue parameter
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/(\d+)/(\d+)/?$ $1.php?id=$2&file_id=$3 [L] # two parameters

Edit

Here is the new code :

xxxxxx:

RewriteEngine On    # Turn on the rewriting engine

#RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/delete/(\d+)/?$ $1.php?delete=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/?$ $1.php [L,QSA] # rewrite without query string parameters
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/?$ $1.php\#$2 [L,QSA] # one name string parameter

admin:

RewriteEngine On    # Turn on the rewriting engine

#RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/?$ $1.php [L,QSA] # rewrite without query string parameters
#RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/(\d+)/?$ $1.php?id=$2 [L,QSA] # one id parameter
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/([^/.]+)/issue/(\d+)/?$ $1.php?issue=$2 [L,QSA] # one issue parameter
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/(\d+)/(\d+)/?$ $1.php?id=$2&file_id=$3 [L,QSA] # two parameters

You need to include the [QSA] flag in your rewrite rules:

RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/delete/(1-9)/?$ $1.php?delete=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule  ^([^/.]+)/?$ $1.php [L,QSA] # rewrite without query string parameters
# etc.

From the documentation:

Modifying the Query String

By default, the query string is passed through unchanged. You can, however, create URLs in the substitution string containing a query string part. Simply use a question mark inside the substitution string to indicate that the following text should be re-injected into the query string. When you want to erase an existing query string, end the substitution string with just a question mark. To combine new and old query strings, use the [QSA] flag.
