Hi,

can anyone tell me what im doing wrong. below is a rewrite rule saved as .htaccess. the page loads and i dont get a 500 error but the url didnt change like it should have in the rewrite rule. The .htaccess is located in the root folder. Any idea what i'm doing wrong guys?
 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^products/$ view/inventory.php

</IfModule>

That is not how mod_rewrite works. It does not change links for you.

 

You need to change all links in your code to  view/inventory.php  to  product/

<a href="/product/">View Inventory</a>

mod_rewite will then map site.com/product/ to site.com/view/inventory.php
