Nice urls not working

[caddyboy0103]

hey i was just wondering if any one had the code to insert into the .htaccess file to fix the nice urls function. when i disable it i am able to view everything but i dont want people to see the category.php=23 i would much rather have it say for-sale-category or what ever what not. i read another post were someone wrote they had inserted a nonexistent .htaccess file and he has it working. does any one want to help me i would really appreciate it.

here is link i found on this forum showing that if the htaccess is coded right it will work.

The content of the .htaccess file is:

Code: [Select]

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule -cat-(\d+)(/(\d+))?$ category.php?id=$1&page=$3 [NC,L]
RewriteRule -item-(\d+)$ item.php?id=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule -page-(\d+)$ page.php?id=$1 [NC,L]

RewriteRule ^feed.xml$ index.php?action=feed [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^sitemap.xml$ index.php?action=sitemap [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^contact.html$ index.php?action=contact [NC,L]

ErrorDocument 404 index.php?action=errorPage&code=404
ErrorDocument 500 index.php?action=errorPage&code=500

# RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
# RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>

pobably you need to insert the next line after "RewriteEngine On"

Code: [Select]

RewriteBase /path/to/osclass/folder/
If your osclass installation is on the root of your server, leave this way :

Code: [Select]

RewriteBase /
If you have it installed in osclass, then it should be something like this :

Code: [Select]

RewriteBase /osclass/

I think the problem is rewrite engine is not working well... This problems is only occurring with categories? if you put some url like: example.com/contact Is it working well?
