I've gone around in circles now and am hoping you smart developers will take pity.......
When I enable SEF by renaming the htaccess.txt to .htaccess i get problems. The hosting company has me placing this line of code in the htaccess.txt file:
Create a .htaccess file and place the following line AddType x-mapp-php5 .php in it.
So am i running into problems because I have both htaccess files in my root directory??
the host is 1and1.com
I am just not a PHP expert so your explanation is greatly appreciated.
I have a school site here:

First of all, you cannot have 2 .htaccess files in the same directory, it's impossible
Second, tell your host to upgrade to PHP5. To make SEF work you just need to:
Enable SEF in the Joomla backend.
Enable Apache mod_rewrite
Disable add suffix to URL's (it may conflict with some JS) - Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.
A template is only as good as the content that goes into it

- May I suggest you to upgrade joomla also? We are now at 1.5.10 :cheesy:
