Subject: Re: [mru] mod rewrite question for static urls
I found out this will only work in httpd.conf not in the .htaccess =
file...
So it will depend on how your host has your serving set up if you can=20
have access to do it in your httpd.conf file or not.
the httpd.conf affects a lot more than just your html directories...so =
if you are on a shared server, your host will probably not allow this.
