With mod_rewrite, you need to watch out for a few gotchas (that you
unfortunatley walked right into)
1 - if you have access to the real conf, use it over htaccess. Rules
go in your <virtualhost>.
2 - rules have a slightly different syntax in htaccess -- the leading
prefix of the match is stripped off based on the htaccess location.
Nothing ever starts with /
3 - if you want to capture the query string, you need to add a
RewriteCond then use the %1 backreference.
Probably something close here:
