I notice my Price Tapestry://www-fancy-dress.com site has loads of broken links - how does this happen and how do I fix it? See alsomst every link off http://www-fancy-dress.com/search.php?q=Wicked-Witch for example.
Thanks. Its working now so I think that there was a caching issue as well as the mod rewrite

Hello Mark,
It looks like ReWrite has stopped working rather than the links being broken.
You will notice that:
http://www-fancy-dress.com/merchant/
...also goes to 404.
Rewrite is used when you have in your config.php:
$config_useRewrite = TRUE;...and must be accompanied by .htaccess, which you can make from the htaccess.txt file that you will find in the distribution. If you are not able to rename it to .htaccess locally and then upload, you can normally do this with your FTP program. In the remote window, Right-Click on htaccess.txt and look for a "Rename..." option - and then enter .htaccess as the new name.
That should be all it is!
Cheers,
David.
