I currently have the following rule: RewriteRule ^Dir/(.*)$ index.php?cat=$1 This rule changes for example: /index.php?cat=SEO to: /Dir/SEO/ However, I want it as just: /SEO/ Removing the 'Dir' part in the rule generates an error, and I can't seem to find an example anywhere. I'm sure it's pretty easy, but I just can't figure out the syntax... Help! /Jon
