[thelist] Apache mod_rewrite

[Rob Smith]

Hi,

my .htaccess document looks like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} GET
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/Vendors.php?name=$1 [R,L,NS]

But I keep getting either a 404 not found or a 403 forbidden. When it did
work here's what happened:

http://www.mydomain.com/byhand went to
http://www.mydomain.com/Vendors.php?name=403.shtml

Huh?
