mod_rewrite to root slash?

[XMLMania]

Hi,

I'm trying to create member profile pages with the following URLs:

members.domain.com/mickymouse

The actual page this will refer to is:

members.domain.com/index.php?id=mickymouse

Everything i've tried returns HTTP error 500, server error.

Can anyone help?

Make sure that your file is encoded for your server! Use a program like BBEdit

File encoding is fine: UNIX-UTF8, without BOM

The .htaccess file contains only ASCII characters, so that isn't the problem.

XMLMania,

Please post your code, and the relevant contents of your server error log when you test that code and get an error, and maybe that will help us to help you.
