Default .htaccess url rewrite clean URLS
Hello All,

I have been asked to create a .htaccess redirect. I have never attempted to work with one of these files. We have a pretty vanilla LAMP setup using rhel4 apache1.3 and php4.2.3.


I was instructed to place the .htaccess file in the document root of the site and and to attempt to get to work.

My goal is to have:
Code:
http://itm2108.com/yadayada/4778198
Redirect to:

Code:
http://itm2108.com/topic/traffic.php?

Here is what I have so far. And I just keep getting a 404. It has to be .htaccess file to. I can make the redirect in the vhost but that is not acceptable.

Code:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/?traffic$ /topic/traffic.php
Thanks in advance.

Jaysunn
