Hi toffy
thanks for the quick respond,
i've opened the .htaccess in the file root (Im not sure but i guess it means the specific site file root)
the .htaccess was empty,
so i added the linebut now even the index.html wont work, i keep getting this mistake:
"Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, admin@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log."
arrrrrgghhh

o.k
for u other guys like me
there is some step to be done before the .htaccessEnable mod_rewrite
1. Find the httpd.conf file (usually you will find it in a folder called conf, config or something along those lines)
2. Inside the httpd.conf file uncomment the line LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so (remove the pound '#' sign from in front of the line)
3. Also find the line ClearModuleList is uncommented then find and make sure that the line AddModule mod_rewrite.c is not commented out.(i couldnt find the lines in step 3 i guess its for an older version) but it seems to works
have fun!
