Friendly url trouble

[yonta]

Hi

I want to turn this url
www.example.com/blog/index.php?action=Projects or www.example.com/blog/index.php?action=Project&id=1
into
www.example.com/blog/index/Projects or
www.example.com/blog/index/Project/1.

So far reading some tutorials i've got this (based on the tutorial at phpfreaks on mod_rewrite)

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^index/(.*).php /index.php?action=$1
RewriteRule ^index/(.*)/(.*).php /index.php?action=$1&id=$2

but it isn't working. I also tried this, thinking maybe it was because the site's inside the blog folder

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule blog/^index/(.*).php /index.php?action=$1
RewriteRule blog/^index/(.*)/(.*).php /index.php?action=$1&id=$2

but it didn't work either. I put the .htaccess file inside the blog folder.

Can anybody help? Please?

Thanx :)
