Its working on my side ?

Maybe you clicked it before I added the .htacc, I renamed it from htaccess.txt to .htaccess after I posted it.

Have you checked with your host that the server actually has mod_rewrite support enabled?

I just looked at my error logs...

[Mon Aug 25 17:07:59 2008] [alert] [client X.X.X.X] /home/skindust/public_html/blue/.htaccess: Invalid command 'php_value', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration.

Try deleting

php_value session.use_only_cookies 1
php_value session.use_trans_sid 0

from your .htaccess

That resolves my error message, so it maye fix yours.

I'm convinced its down to the 2 lines in .htaccess.

Have you checked your error logs ?
