htacceess certain folders - HELP

| hi there
I really need some help with this - really struggling now...
I would like to redirect the following:
mydomain.com/ea1/eb1
- > mydomain.com/page?first=ea1&second=ea2
mydomain.com/ea2/eb2
- > mydomain.com/page?first=ea2&second=ea2
mydomain.com/ea3/eb3
- > mydomain.com/page?first=ea3&second=ea3
now, i can write the htaccess to do this, but what I have written conflicts with some wordpress archives. Now this is not good! And causes a 404 error.
I want to ONLY redirect those 3 URLs, and anything else left alone.
How do I do this
PLEASE HELP!!!!

| note...again... i would like to use rewrite rather than redirect, so that the original URL stays in the address bar

| In you .htaccess in the www root directory (typically public_html).
************
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/ea1/eb1$ /page?first=ea1&second=ea2 [L]
RewriteRule ^/ea1/eb2$ /page?first=ea2&second=ea2 [L]
RewriteRule ^/ea1/eb3$ /page?first=ea3&second=ea3 [L]
************
That will affect all calls to this site under any domain - with the exact URL specified.
You need to read the docs at apache.org for the mod_rewrite module for other changes.
Enjoy rossh

| thank you for your reply.
if i wanted to make it so that the value was passed to second= via a variable ($1/$2 probably), how would I go aobut doing this?
cheers

| Use something like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/ea1/eb1$ /page?first=ea1&second=ea2 [L]
RewriteRule ^/ea1/eb2$ /page?first=ea2&second=ea2 [L]
RewriteRule ^/ea1/eb3$ /page?first=ea3&second=ea3 [L]
Not 100% or even 80% sure but something like that is what I used before
BTW That's to fix htaccess only limited to one directory.
