Wasnt sure where to post this as I suppose you could call it a "Nix" or a "php" topic.

I have .htaccess looking like this...

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/([a-z]+)/?$ /SCRIPTS/cleanurls/index.php?q=$1&r=$2

.. and it all works fine.

However, for the sake of easy deployment, I would like to not have to alter the .htaccess
file for every install i do of this custom CMS.

Is there something I can use in the place of the "/SCRIPTS/cleanurls/" part of the rule,
I presume I cannot call a php function through modrewrite like dirname($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])

any ideas?

I don't know. 

What I do know is that the dirs below doc root will need to be for the same domain.

htaccess in doc root does not work on dirs that are delegated to other domains, (DNS),
unless you have wildcard DNS setup.  You said every install which makes me think of
separate domains.

Actually you know what, having read your post mate, I think I may know what is going on.

Will post back later on when i get home and have a chance to look at it.
