title: Rewrite URLs for a website in a subdirectory
body: <p>I'm developing a website on localhost using XAMPP under Windows 7. 
  The website URL is <a href="http://localhost/lyrics" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost/lyrics</a>. How can I enable url rewriting for that subdirectory? </p>
  
  <p>I tried with the code below but it didn't work. </p>
  
  <pre><code>RewriteEngine On
  RewriteBase /lyrics
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
