How would I write a RewriteRule to make an exception for one file

I currently have this in my .htaccess file:

Options +FollowSymLinks  
RewriteEngine On    
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ index.php?pagename=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}

The the html file name is rewritten to the pagename query string.

However I'm trying to al开发者_运维百科low access to one particular static html file, so somehow I need to overwrite the rule or make an exception.

Thanks for you help.

1. No point appending QUERY_STRING yourself; you'll leave a stray & if there isn't any, and mod_rewrite already has a tool to do it better:

   RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ index.php?pagename=$1 [QSA]

2. You can control a RewriteRule with a RewriteCond that precedes it. For example:

   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/staticpage.html$
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ index.php?pagename=$1 [QSA]

3. Another useful pattern is RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f which will bypass the following RewriteRule any time that the URL would have matched an existing regular file in the docroot.
