I'm clueless about .htaccess rewrites

[Chris]

I've got a script and the rewrites are kicking my butt

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond   %{REQUEST_URI} \/([0-9a-z]{1,9})$ [NC]
RewriteRule   ^(.*) http://URL/?%1


RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
