I applied pretty URLS and modrewrite to 1.66 in order to get facebook talking nicely with my rss.
Coding details are below.
RSS feed now works.
Pretty URLs seem to work.
However, I find that frequently a page will not display in a browser. If I use the back button to the previous page I was displaying on the site it also refuses to display. It appears to be related to pages with hyphens in the page name; eg contact-us.html
Have I done somthing odd with the configuration (below) or does anyone else have experience of this?

Error Code:

Code: Select all

This error (HTTP 406 Not Acceptable) means that Internet Explorer was able to receive information from the website you visited, but the information was not in a format that Internet Explorer can display.

The issue also occurs in Firefox and Chrome

phpinfor and .htaccess are both in public_html folder

My phpinfo has

Code: Select all

config['page_extension'] = '.html';

#If you're using the internal pretty url mechanism or mod_rewrite, would you like to
#show urls in their hierarchy?  (ex. http://www.mysite.com/parent/parent/childpage)
$config['use_hierarchy'] = true;

#If using none of the above options, what should we be using for the query string
#variable?  (ex. http://www.mysite.com/index.php?page=somecontent)
$config['query_var'] = 'page';

My .htacess is the copy of the docs htaccess.txt file
