copied!<p>Not much detail in your question, but let me try an angle that hasn't been taken yet (as far as I noticed). </p> <p>If you're asking why the <strong>.htaccess file works for this request</strong>:</p> <pre><code>http://myserver.com/mypage </code></pre> <p>Or even <strong>this request</strong>:</p> <pre><code>http://localhost/mypage </code></pre> <p>But <strong>not this request</strong>:</p> <pre><code>file://www/mypage </code></pre> <p>It's because the first two are actual HTTP requests, requiring the page to be 'served' by Apache. Apache (assuming a correct configuration for your situation) processes the .htaccess file while serving the request.</p> <p>That whole process is bypassed for the third 'request', because that's not a HTTP request, that's a <strong>local filesystem</strong> request. In that case the web browser is loading a file much like a word processor. No web server is ever contacted, so the .htaccess file is meaningless.</p> <p>If that's what you mean by <strong>local</strong>, then <strong>to my knowledge there's no way to get a browser to process the .htaccess file for a local request</strong>. </p> <p>But in the future, there's a world of difference between requesting a flie for a local server, and loading a file from a local system.</p> <p>Again, this is only my take on one way your question could be interpreted, if indeed you're referring to requesting the file from a local web serve - check the configuration as many have suggested. (<em>And check that you're running Apache too</em>.)</p>
