alt.apache.configuration is a good group for this type of thing...
Here is out of one of my .htaccess files:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/?$ x.php [L,NS,QSA]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} -d [OR]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} -f
RewriteRule .* - [PT]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)(/([^/]+))?(/([^/]+))?(/([^/]+))?(/([^/]+))?/?$
x.php?d1=$1&d2=$3&d3=$5&d4=$7&d5=$9 [L,NS,QSA]
Request:
example.com/this/is/my/home/page/
Result (spaces for easy reading):
x.php?d1=this &d2=is &d3=my &d4=home &d5=page
Relative uris used in links, images, etc. fail (need to be absolute or
at least start with "/")
