How remove index.php from URLs? [SOLVED]

[eluser]CoderReborn[/eluser]
I'm following exactly what's in the User Guide, but still cannot remove index.php from my URLs.

- My "system" folder is at my root
- My controller called "home" is located at /system/application/controllers/home.php

- This works: http://localhost/index.php/home
- This does not work: http://localhost/home

Here what I added to my .htaccess file:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

It looks like the index.php file at the root needs to be executed before the path to the controllers can be discovered?

Thanks.
