nginx rewrite WITHOUT change url

Question

I want to use rewrite function in my nginx server.

When I try "http://www.example.com/1234", I want to rewrite "http://www.example.com/v.php?id=1234" and want to get "http://www.example.com/1234" in browser.

Here is nginx.conf file

...   location ~ /[0-9]+ {       rewrite "/([0-9]+)" http://www.example.com/v.php?id=$1 break;   } ... 

When I try "http://www.example.com/1234"

I want to ...

url bar in browser : http://www.example.com/1234 real url : http://www.example.com/v.php?id=1234 

but I'm in trouble ...

url bar in browser : http://www.example.com/v.php?id=1234 real url : http://www.example.com/v.php?id=1234

Reference: http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpRewriteModule#rewrite

If the replacement string begins with http:// then the client will be redirected, and any further >rewrite directives are terminated.

So remove the http:// part and it should work:

location ~ /[0-9]+ {         rewrite "/([0-9]+)" /v.php?id=$1 break; }
