.htaccess and rewrite on mac

Got it! I found the information I needed on these 2 pages:

The following htaccess file will rewrite all urls except those beginning with the exceptions in the first RewriteCond line:

# ================= #
DirectoryIndex index.php

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|css|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 index.php
</IfModule>
# ================= #

In case my setup differs from yours, I'm using MAMP with the htdocs folder set up like this so there's a single installation of CodeIgniter.

<folder name="htdocs">

<folder name="ci">

<folder name="CodeIgniter_1.7.2">
</folder>

<folder name="app_1_application">
</folder>
<folder name="app_1_webroot">
.htaccess
index.php
</folder>

<folder name="app_2_application">
</folder>
<folder name="app_2_webroot">
</folder>
<folder name="app_3_application">
</folder>
<folder name="app_3_webroot">
</folder>

</folder>

<folder name="non_ci_site_1">
</folder>
<folder name="non_ci_site_2">
</folder>

</folder>

I hope this helps you.
