It seems to be an issue with using relative URLs in your links. If you are on this page (this is in your browser address bar): http://benchwarmersports.com/packages.php?category=basketball&year=2010&title=nba-all-star-game The browser will interpret all relative links like 'somefile.php' as: http://benchwarmersports.com/somefile.php But if you use your rewritten URL, then the browser will see relative links as one of the following (not sure which without testing): http://benchwarmersports.com/packages/basketball/2010/nba-all-star-game/somefile.php --or-- http://benchwarmersports.com/packages/basketball/2010/somefile.php This is because it is interpreting the slashes as path separators. You probably need to generate absolute URLs in your links. -- Thanks! -Shawn http://www.spidean.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
