Anyhoo I may end up going down that road.<br /><br /> The tricky(er) part I've encountered is needing to do two seperate things: rewrite mydomain.com/ to mydomain.com/index.html (so ensuing ajax calls are bookmarkable), and mydomain.com/something.html --> mydomain.com/index.html#something<br /><br /> Simply chaining: <div class="quotetext"><strong>Code:</strong> </div> <pre class="code"> RewriteRule ^(.+)\.html?$ /index.html#$1 [R,L,NE] RewriteRule ^$ /index.html [R,L]</pre> <p>throws it into a loop.<br /> -----<br /><br /> Edit: hmmm, nope. After fixing a misplaced [L] flag, the htaccess seems to be working fine*. The loop was being caused by a js $.get statement which fails spectacularly (and mysteriously) if an include can't be found, in this case due to a misconfigured path, by 'get-ting' the entire index page instead, even though I was using a jqXHR .fail statement that works fine in other .get instances in my script.
