php .htaccess query
I have a GODADDY hosting account which holds several domains.
I have the file structure in the background as
/ (root folder which contains the main domain files
/_websites/ (other website domain files here)
I have several websites, one of which is cubecart4, the others are joomla 1.5. I am trying to get apache rewrite setup on all of these sites, but there is a problem. I am not able to configure each with their own, completely different .htaccess file as they insist on using the one at the root.
So I have a .htaccess file setup in the root container and all my joomla sites quite happily use this, and work fine. If I try to put a HTACCESS file in each sites virtual root (i.e /_websites/domain.com/.hta ccess they will not use it and just give internal server errors.
However, I cannot install a .htaccess for my cubecart site. I tried to put it in the root of the site and it wont work.
Any ideas on how I can set this up without having to get a seperate hosting account for each domain? Is anyone on godaddy hosting several sites on one account with different .htaccess and how was it done?

Can you post the rewrite rules for joomla and the rewrite rules for cubecart4?

That code looks great for future use, but I did find that the lines from the two HTACCESS files for Joomla abnd CUbecart are so different, and unique to the site that they can sit happily in the same HTACCESS file and now all sites have SEF URL's.
