ht access problems

 

hi guys, heres what my .htaccess file looks like

 

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^test/([^/]+) /index.php?text=$1 [NC]

 

my directory structure is

 

-www directory

--test

---index.php

 

the index.php file contains:

<?php echo $_GET['text']; ?>

 

now what im wanting is if say i visit localhost/test/hello

 

the php page wil display hello, but instead i get page not found, any ideas?

tried using that, but it generates urls with the parameter in them.

 

how close is my original attempt to what i want?

If everything's inside the directory /test try this...

 

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /test/
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)$ index.php?text=$1 [NC]

 

Or

 

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^test/([^/]+)$ test/index.php?text=$1 [NC]

cheers guys got it going with

 

RewriteRule ^([0-9a-z]+)$ index.php?text=$1 [NC]

 

the htaccess file is in my test directory so yeah it will only rewrite if your in the test directory.
