How would I mod_rewrite a request for /baseball.htm into /query.php?q=baseball?

This should be doing it as far as I can tell, but for some reason it's not... RewriteEngine on RewriteRule /^(.+).htm$ /query.php?q=$1

RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/(.+)\.htm$ /query.php?q=$1 But note this isn't good.. since say if you got a regular page /index.htm then it will be rewritten into /query.php?q=index so what you better do is having a prefix of a 'virtual' directory, like was suggested before 'sport'... and make it like this: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/sport/(.+)\.htm$ /query.php?q=$1 -Eli.
