Problem with Form Validation and Htaccess file

[eluser]DavidHopkins[/eluser]
Thanks for your replies all.

I have managed to get this working without the use of a htaccess file, however as soon as i change

Code:

$config['index_page'] = 'index.php';

to

Code:

$config['index_page'] = '';

in my config/config.php file i start to get errors.

FOr some reason i get errors relating to no such variables cid, email and pass which are the names of my form elements

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Notice

Message: Undefined variable: email

Filename: controllers/login.php

Line Number: 28

Thats one error, but i dont get that when i have index.php in my config file. Its really odd and starting to bother me a little bit

Here is my htaccess file

Code:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    #Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file,
    #such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the
    #request to index.php
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
    # If we don't have mod_rewrite installed, all 404's
    # can be sent to index.php, and everything works as normal.
    # Submitted by: ElliotHaughin

    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>

Thanks
