Hi all, I've been battling with this problem for weeks now and not managed to find out anything to help.. I have a website in the document root folder, and also in that folder is a .htaccess file, with the lines: Options +Indexes Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?$ index.php?menu=$1 [L] However, whenever i try to access /new (which should take me to index.php?menu=news) it just spews up a 404.. - any ideas? I have Apache 2.2.3 and PHP 5.1.6. In the httpd.conf file i have uncommented the only obviously relavent line: LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so but in the phpinfo(); there is no mention of the mod_rewrite... Any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks

I presume you are implying I need to change my .htaccess page from what I wrote to what you wrote - but then I get a 404 instead of a 403.
