    You're rewriting everything (css,js,html,...) to "view_profile.php?member_id=" and in my opinion this is a little difficult to maintain. I suggest you to change te rule to something similar to this:
    RewriteRule ^/profile/(.*)$ view_profile.php?member_id=$1

    Thats correct.

    Don't use catch-all
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ view_profile.php?member_id=$1

    Use more specific alias such as
    RewriteRule ^my-profile-rewrite-(.*)$ view_profile.php?member_id=$1
