How to convert querystring to paths URL using mod_rewrite?

Question

I'm trying to rewrite a URL that has a query string to its SEO friendly name i.e. consider

mysite.com/models?p1=v1

I'd like to rewrite it to

mysite.com/models/p1/v1

The user should see the above address in address bar. Any suggesstions?

Do you want to rewrite any query string into the directory like expression? What should be done with the result to not end in 404 error handler? — Kamil Šrot

I think you want to the opposite, rewrite mysite.com/models/p1/v1 to mysite.com/models?p1=v1 in order that SE-s see mysite.com/models/p1/v1 — Denes P

The .htaccess should be:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^models/(.+)/(.+)$ models.php?$1=$2 [NC,L]
