RewriteRule Recursion issue

I have the following in a htaccess file to rewrite the params out 

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?unique=$1 [L,QSA]

Now the issue I have is with recursion

/folder/12345 - works fine and gets the value 12345

/folder/sub-folder/ - the index.php*strong text* file in here breaks with the above script

Anyone ideas how to stop it filtering into sub folder's index.php files?

You should be able to use a simple condition to check so the requested url isn't pointing to a file:

 RewriteBase /folder/
 # check so the request doesn't contain a valid filename
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
 # bounce everything to index.php
 RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?unique=$1 [L,QSA]

The above will send everything that isn't a valid url to index.php while urls containing a filename such as example.com/index.php will be left untouched.
