[obviously they will impact how php pages are displayed, but they aren't a part of php.] - you need to turn on and review rewrite rule logging. - some aspects of rewrite rules (specifically logging) are apache-version dependent, but you haven't included any mention of either your apache or php version. - it's rather unclear what you are trying to accomplish and why all the rewrite rules. you need to provide a fairly detailed description of your set up, structure and goals in order for people to provide insights. a plethora of rewrite rules are generally unnecessary/undesired. - it's not clear what you are referring to here: > but that only lasted 5 minutes - now not going. things don't "magically" work or stop working on their own, so this implies that you did something that caused things to stop working. when debugging - make *one* action/change, document/test then make another (single) action/change, etc. save your state incrementally so that you can roll back. i.e., don't try to remember what you did/typed (you may not have actually made the change you think you did). rather keep explicit backups then use diff (or equiv) to see changes if/as necessary.
