.htaccess rewrite rules stops reading url after first part of string
Thank you for reading.
I am trying to rewrite all dynamic category links (/product_list.php?cat_id=xxx) to more "friendly" text links. The problem I'm running into is with subcategories:
RewriteRule Complete-AC-Systems product_list.php?cat_id=2
works great, however when a sub category is present:
RewriteRule Complete-AC-Systems__Packaged-Systems product_list.php?cat_id=7
the browser stops reading after Complete-AC-Systems and re-directs to product_list.php?cat_id=2 not cat_id=7
Most of our categories are 3 and 4 levels in, so this is a pervasive issue.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

How about reversing the order of the rules? I.e., putting the longest matches first.
