try that and see..
if that doesnt work, your host probably has the "AllowOverride" directive set to off... which means you are stuck with whatever they set in the Apache configuration
Okay, now I got it. It's right alongside the index.html file - no dice. Looks like they have the AllowOverride directive set to off.
Thanks for the help though, I'm sure it will come in handy with other hosts.

ensure the file is called '.htaccess' the dot is very important. Dependant on your editor, you may have to quote the filename when saving i.e. ".htaccess"
Wow, sharp eye there, thanks. I finally got it right, but still no dice. I'll have to check that out with some of my other hosts and see if I can get it to work.
