    Can anyone tell me why this might not be working:

    RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^index.php?keywords=([A-Za-z0-9-+"'() ]+)/?$ http://www.mysite.com/search/$1 [R]
    Code (markup):
    ?

    Problem solved over on another forum.

    I wasn't aware that you couldn't use RewriteRules directly on query strings.

    Use a conditional fixes the problem!

    He did. Only the requested file is matched to the pattern in a RewriteRule. To do a match on a query string (everything after after ?), you'd need to use RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} #pattern#
