How to handle htaccess rewrite when variable has a slash inside? - apache

Question

I want to rewrite this https://example.com/EUR/USD to https://example.com/details.php?code=EUR/USD ( EUR/USD is the variable that can change for example USD/GBP, GBP/EUR etc.. )
beause the variable has a slash inside, following rule does not work, but if the variable does not have a slash inside (eg: https://example.com/details.php?code=EURUSD) it works perfect.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$ /details.php?code=$1 [L]
How to handle this situation ?
EDIT: My currency htaccess :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /$1 [L,R=301]
#RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://example.com/$1 [R,L]
#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example.com [NC]
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://example.com/$1 [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ details.php?code=$1

Your sub-pattern [^/]* will match 0 or more of any character that is not a / and since you have a / in your GET variable this won't work.
You can use:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([A-Z/]+)/?$ details.php?code=$1 [L,QSA]
Take note of 2 RewriteCond lines for 2 conditions that mean don't execute this rule for a real file and real directory.
