htaccess rewrite to create friendly urls

The following rule works, but it changes the URL in the address bar, which is not intended.

RewriteRule ^network/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/network.php?networkUrl=$1 [L]

The following rule redirects, the URL stays the same, but all the images, includes in the network.php file become referenced incorrectly...

RewriteRule ^network/(.*)$ network.php?networkUrl=$1 [L]

Is there a way to make this work?

Setting a base href HTML tag in your page could help too:

<base href="http://www.domain.com/" />

then all your relative images, stylesheets or javascript files will be relative to this base href.

This is because your browser interprets paths as relative.

To solve this reference your images and CSS with absolute paths, i.e. <img href="image.jpg" /> becomes <img href="/image.jpg" />

Same applies for css so

<link href="stylesheets/foo.css" media="print" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

becomes

<link href="/stylesheets/foo.css" media="print" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

In this way all resources links works as expected when referenced from any depth as /foo/bar/baz/script.php and so on.
