I know this has ben beat to death but my host is working with me to get it going. This is what they wrote, but i dont know what to reply with. Please help.

Unfortunately htaccess files are limited, but we can make certain configuration changes for you.

First, the PHP Settings
--
php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0
php_value register_globals 0
php_value session.auto_start 0

These flags will not work because PHP is not running as an Apache module on our servers. I have made these changes to your Apache configuration which should already be in effect.

Rewrite Rules
--
These must be entered directly in the VirtualHost container and must be done by one of us.

The rule listed in your current htaccess can be entered for you, but it looks like there are a few options that can be used with these rules. Which lines do you want to be entered for your sites configuration?

That (#) is a comment sign and what old style means and then just put php_values and the active RewriteConditions in their configuration files. Perhaps they even modified RewriteBase.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine on

  # Modify the RewriteBase if you are using Drupal in a subdirectory and
  # the rewrite rules are not working properly.
  # RewriteBase /drupal

  # Rewrite current-style URLs of the form 'index.php?q=x'.
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>

And no, you do not need to tack on dollar signs. BTW your site was working fine this morning (http://drupal.org/node/47515) except for the PCRE library.

Looks like my PHP is not up to par..

I did make a comment about tacking on $ to get a reply. incase somebody tries to understand why you said that, it was because of me..
