Rewriting a url with more than one page - php

Question

I'm trying to rewrite my urls on a page that has a pagination option and I'm unsure of what string to use because the one i'm currently using isn't working.
My document structure is below
blog-listing.php
htaccess
/blog/post.php
/css/
/js/
/images/
What's already in my htaccess file
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^blog/category/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ /blog/archive.php?cat=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^blog/category/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/{0,1}$ /blog/archive.php?cat=$1&page=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^blog/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ /blog/post.php?s=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^blog/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ /blog/post.php?s=$1&page=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^(css)($|/) - [L]
RewriteRule ^(perch)($|/) - [L]
RewriteRule ^(images)($|/) - [L]
RewriteRule ^(js)($|/) - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
The line i've tried to use
RewriteRule ^blog-listing/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ /blog-listing.php?s=$1&page=$2 [L]
The url I'm receiving
http://mysite(dot)com/blog-listing.php?page=2
The url I'd like
http://mysite(dot)com/blog-listing/page-2
Any ideas?

Use a simple file to manage your url
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect all requests not pointing at an actual file to index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

The framework you're using to pagination will do the rest.
