mod_rewrite shouldn't be interfering with this? you upload the verification html file to your root diretory.

 

what is the problem you're having exactly?

 

to remove your rules, just open your .htaccess file and remove the rules (make sure to save them to paste back)

it still wont work sir

There is a nice little tool available for free on-line that will convert a dynamic link into a static link and gives you the right code to paste into your .htaccess file. It also tells you in which folder you should upload this .htaccess file to in order for it to work.

 

The tool can be found on http://www.webconfs.com/url-rewriting-tool.php

 

In order for the mod_rewrite to work it needs to be activated by the web host.

If you're not sure about this you can easily check this by doing the following:

 

1.) Open your text editor (note pad, Edit pad, etc.) and paste the following code

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

 

2.) Save your work as info.php

 

3.) Upload the info.php into your main directory (the directory where your index.html or index.php is located)

 

4.) Browse to www.yoursite.com/info.php and do a search on that page (Ctrl + F) and type mod_rewrite

If this module is not loaded than you have to contact your web host.

 

Good luck!
