I\'m trying to do a very simple rewrite of a query string and I\'m having no luck at all. I need to go from

If you just want it to pick up the php file without informing the browser:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/\?ACT=jquery$ index.php/?ACT=jquery [PT,L]

If you want the browser to change bookmarks etc. to create a cononical URL:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/\?ACT=jquery$ index.php/?ACT=jquery [R=301,L]

Assuming arbitrary arguments:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/\?(.*)$ index.php/?$1 [PT,L]

Or you might prefer a script alias:

ScriptAliasMatch ^(.*)\?(.*)$ index.php
