i have a regex that i want it to allow white spaces. this regex i am using is in the .htaccess file. whenever i put the s it makes the whole regex not work
what can i do to make it allow white spaces and work?
this is my regex:
([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/?$ RewriteRule ^(?!profile|home|recieved|search|ajaxsearch|sent|favorites|deletemessage|favorite|replypopup|deletereply|Editprofile|changepass|followingsystem|checkFollowers|block|report|logout|login|register|forgotpassword|resetpassword|twitterapi|index|manage)([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/?$ ./searchusers.php?search=$1 [L]

Answer
Have your rule like this:
RewriteRule ^(?!profile|home|recieved|search|ajaxsearch|sent|favorites|deletemessage|favorite|replypopup|deletereply|Editprofile|changepass|followingsystem|checkFollowers|block|report|logout|login|register|forgotpassword|resetpassword|twitterapi|index|manage)([^/]+)/?$ ./searchusers.php?search=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
Here [^/] is negated character class that matches any character except / and it will match whitespace as well.
