[Mediawiki-l] converting ugly url to pretty with rewrite

Sun Apr 23 16:40:50 UTC 2006

Sorry to bug everyone again... I want to use mod rewrite to convert  
ugly url's (index.php?title=Main_Page) to nicer ones (index.php/ 
Main_page).  The ugly URL is enabled in my LocalSettings.php.

I've created this .htaccess file:

RewriteRule ^index.php?title=(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

And put it in my root directory.  But it seems to have no effect (the  
provider says rewriting is enabled).

Does anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Michelle
