  <pre><code>RewriteEngine On
  
  
  # The following rule tells Apache that if the requested filename
  # exists, simply serve it.
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
  RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
  
  # The following rewrites all other queries to index.php. The 
  # condition ensures that if you are using Apache aliases to do
  # mass virtual hosting, the base path will be prepended to 
  # allow proper resolution of the index.php file; it will work
  # in non-aliased environments as well, providing a safe, one-size 
  # fits all solution.
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}::$1 ^(/.+)(.+)::\2$
  RewriteRule ^(.*) - [E=BASE:%1]
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{ENV:BASE}index.php [NC,L]
