Have reverted to that, double checked the file permissions, but still no joy.

Ok, what I would suggest now is to remove the mod_rewrite bits so that all your .htaccess file is doing is serving to change the type of php in use. The create a file called info.php in your root and write a script that just contains the phpinfo(); command echoed, and enclosed in the appropriate php tags.

What happens now when you try and load that file?

Unfortunately that is exactly what i was trying - i have a .htaccess containing just the php code, and a test php file with just phpinfo(); in it. If I remove the .htaccess file and refresh it shows the php4 info fine.

Sorted - I had put the cgi-bin folder in the root of my account, moving it to within the AAA.co.uk webserver folder fixed the problem.

Ah, no wonder it was 404 not found

Glad you have it fixed
