Mod Rewrite Help

[fluiduk]

Hi
Having some problems with the following code, any ideas why it would give me a 404

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^property_news/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ /property_news/show_news.php?url_rewrite=$1 [L]

Thanks
Aaron

I take it show_news.php actually exists in a folder called property_news in the root?

There's nothing wrong with the code itself, it sounds like you've got some simple config problem like having the .htaccess file in the wrong directory, or not having mod_rewrite enabled...
