Thank you very much for the reply. But the bad thing is that it's not working

ohh...may be I'm doing it in a bit wrong way, I've placed it in the test sub-folder..is that right?

Another thing is that, actually situation is like this : "http://www.xyz.net/aId=<foldername>"
and I want it to appear like "http://www.xyz.net/<foldername>"..

thank you again

meaning you have this rule in a .htaccess file in <document_root>/test ?

Exactly so...I've placed it in <doc_root>/<sub_folder>/.htaccess

Is that the correct approach?

Or should it be the single .htaccess at <doc_root>?

If you can plz, give the rewriterule....I am trying heartnsoul...but all in vein..

thanking u in anticipation
