htaccess dynamic subdomains "pretty urls"

[timmah1]

I'm trying to create rules to make the urls "pretty", but also use dynamic subdomains. I can only get one or the other to work

 

For example:

I want the url to show

http://abc.example.com/category, and

 

but the script will actually access

http://example.com/page.php?short=category&sub=abc

 

How can I do this together?

 

I already set up a dns entry for wildcard subdomains

 

Here is what I have so far, but this is not working, I keep getting a 404 Error

 

Any help would be greatly apprecaited

Options +FollowSymLinks
 
RewriteEngine On 
 
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d  
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f 
RewriteRule ^(\w+)$ ./page.html?short=$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+)\.example\.com$ [NC]
