Rerouting URL path to parameters

I want to mask the URL http://example.com/index.php?path=controller/function to http://example.com/controller/function. function isn't required to be present.

How can I do this with an htaccess file?

The following isn't working.

RewriteRule ^/?assets/(.*)$ assets/$1 [L] # directory for CSS, images, and JavaScript
RewriteRule ^$ /index [redirect]
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z]+)/?([a-zA-Z/]*)$ index.php?path=$1/$2 [L]

Currently, if I enter http://example.com/controller/function in the browser, I receive a 404 error, but entering http://example.com/index.php?path=controller/function works.

Thanks!

You may try this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)(.*)?$ index.php?path=$1$2   [L]

It maps internally

http://example.com/var1/var2

To:

http://example.com/index.php?path=var1/var2

Keeps the incoming trailing slash behavior and var2 is optional.
