hello,
i'm trying to get Clean URLs going on my site. after reading the instructions on http://drupal.org/node/15365, i sent an email to my host about step #1. here is the reply i got:
Hi,
This module is compiled into apache already. You can enable it in a .htaccess file placed on your document root with the following line.
RewriteEngine On
Then add teh RewriteCond and RewriteRule lines you need.
Thanks,
Eric
i dont really know much of anything about .htaccess files.. so i'm not exactly sure how to act on the information eric replied with. i have the standard .htaccess file that comes with drupal4.7, but i'll post it below.
Could somebody show me where to make the nesc. changes?
