no no, the rule

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)\ps2(.*).html$ pdisplay.php?page=p2/$1&type=htm

is correct, because you have added the 'ps2' before (.*).html (that is
'1 more check in the rewrite rule' of my previous post. Excuse me for
my bad english, i'm italian :D )

When apache look for a page, example
http://www.domain.com/g2antigrav.html

it find that both rules match :

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)\.html$ pdisplay.php?page=p2/$1&type=htm
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)\.html$ gdisplay.php?page=g2/$1&type=htm

but the first rule is follow.

In that rule
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)\ps2(.*).html$ pdisplay.php?page=p2/$1&type=htm

http://www.domain.com/g2antigrav.html doesn't match, because the name
of the page doesn't start with ps2, so the rule is ignored.

with

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)\g2(.*).html$ pdisplay.php?page=g2/$1&type=htm

the url http://www.domain.com/g2antigrav.html match because the name of
the page starts with g2.
