Ignore url variables but still cache the page [#2607664]

It seems like I'm not the only one with this problem but none of the other issues presented a clear solution.

I have a url variable called "?slide=X" which is only controlling which slide opens on the javascript slideshow when the page loads. Obviously I don't need 10 different Boost caches for each of the slides since they're all loading the same html.

All the .htaccess rules above don't really do it for me. Anybody had any luck on this?

examples.com/node/10?slide=3 needs to call the cache/normal/examplecom/node/10_.html file instead the cache/normal/examplecom/node/10_slide=3.html

Is this at all possible?

It would be great to have a general option on the settings page to ignore all url parameters or maybe ignore specific ones but still cache the pages. I think boos for D6 had this.

Thanks in advance

ended up resolving by adding this to the end of my setting.php page:

//check if url has parameters
if(strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'?') == true) {
	//clean all parameters   
	$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] = strtok($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '?');
}
