What's wrong with the following line in my .htaccess file? All of my other rewrites work, just not this one.

I'm using the following code but it doesn't seem to work? It just goes to topic 10 (for example) while ignoring the view parameter. Any ideas?

RewriteRule ^t([0-9]+)(.*).(.*)$ /forums/viewtopic.php?t=$1&view=$2 [L]

I figured out the problem. There was nothing wrong with this line. It's just that I also had another RewriteRule in the same format that took the same number of paramaters, that did something different entirely. I guess I just didn't realize it! ;)
