Hi,

^^^^ I don't have this

> RewriteRule 
> ^/(typo3|typo3temp|typo3conf|t3lib|tslib|fileadmin|uploads|showpic\.php)$ 
^^^^ I do not start with ^/ but with ^ alone

> - [L]
> RewriteRule 
> ^/(typo3|typo3temp|typo3conf|t3lib|tslib|fileadmin|uploads|showpic\.php)/.*$ 
> - [L]
^^^^ (why twice?)

RewriteRule ^typo3$ typo3/index_re.php [L]

> RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
> RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
> RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
> RewriteRule .* index.php
^^^^ I have /index.php instead of index.php
