title: Apply a URL rewrite rule on Typo3 website using .htaccess
body: <p>I have a url rewrite rule that works fine on my local server (xampp) , but when I put it inside the .htaccess of a typo3 site won't work . This is how this rule looks like : </p>
  
  <pre><code>RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/test/$1\.html -f [NC]
  RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ /test/$1.html [L,R]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and she redirects every request that ends up with www.site.com/name/ to www.site.com/name.html with showing the .html extension in the url bar . Like I said , this rewrite rule works successfully on my local server , but applied on a normal website ( not a typo3 ) , the .htaccess of the typo3 website contains a hole bunch of other rewrite rules written by another programmer , so these are the 2 rational reasons that preventing it from working : </p>
  
  <p>1st : the already in .htaccess existing rewrite rules overwrite the one I created (eventhough when I add it at the very bottom of the file )</p>
  
  <p>2nd : maybe because the structure of the typo3 cms is different , which I don't really think it can affect on the .htaccess rules , but .. I still find it a possible reason (unless someone confirm me the opposite).</p>
  
  <p>I would really appreciate it if someone could really help me making it work using the .htaccess file and not relying on one of the extension like RealUrl .</p>
