Permalink Problem

I have my wordpress permalinks setup like this. /%category%/%postname%.html
But when I try to access pages (not posts) I get a 404 page. Posts work fine but not pages. Can anyone help me with this?

 

You need to set up the .htaccess file before you can access them.

copy the text given below the permalincs section to .htaccess in the public_html folder.

Cheers,

I have the .htaccess file in the public_html folder. This is what it looks like:

remove everything but the #begin wordpress to #end wordpress ...

the rest is part of some plugin or something else .. leave just what I tell you (make backup of the original just in case).
