Hi :] Thx for getting back to me.
The L option in rewrites doesn't appear to stop
the rewrite engine. But then again, maybe I don't know
what I am doing...
Any ways, rewrites which should forward 'Not Founds' to
another server do not appear to work, IE:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-U
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} -U
RewriteRule ^(.+) - [L]
RewriteRule ^(.+) http://www.fccj.org$1 [L]
(The above is used under a virtual host...)
But, as I said, and after spending a lot of 'days' on this
I am not sure I care anymore. Would just like better support or
clearer documentation on Rewriting, etc.
As afr as writing the 'clearer' docs myself, I would if
Icould get a straight answer as to why things work this
way or that, but either people are busy or honestly
don't know. So... At any rate, I am living without
Rewriting working - at least working the way I thought! ;)
Thx :]
