how to have a htaccess rule not effect the root index file

Asked by paulp75 in Apache Web Server, PHP Scripting Language, PHP and Databases

The htaccess below works well with all the dynamic urls, but the problem is that when i remove the / from the third line so it looks like
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$ /php/page.php?page_filename=$1 [L]
so that i can display http://www.domain.com/page_filename
without the trailing slash, i am unable to display http://www.domain.com/
is there any way to make an exception to the rule so that when the root document is loaded, that it will still show index.php instead of php/page.php

thanks for any helpStart Free Trial
