I try to get .htaccess to do URL rewrite

this is my .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule home index.php?id=1
RewriteRule howyoucanbehelped index.php?id=2
RewriteRule company index.php?id=3

But it doesn't work, I get transferred to http://error.000webhost.com/ instead.

What to do? This code has worked on other hosts...

add rewritebase /

this question has been answer numerous time please search the forum and you will have answer to most your question. Thanks

RewriteBase / alone didn't do it.

After doing my research I finally got following to work:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/?home$ index.php?id=1[L]
RewriteRule ^/?howyoucanbehelped$ index.php?id=3[L]
RewriteRule ^/?company$ index.php?id=2[L]

I understand that as a moderator it gets old to see the same question over and over again, and for a end user like me it's a pain to have to detective work for everything so...
it would be exellent if common code snippets like this was added to a FAQ or stickied!

Ok, I've tried the advice from the FAQ:
http://www.000webhost.com/faq.php?ID=14

but I still can't seem to get it to work. Here's what I tried:

# Rewrite subdomain requests to subdirectories except for katharou.comuf.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sd_
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.katharou\.comuf.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.katharou\.comuf.com
RewriteRule (.*) /sd_%1/$1 [L]
#
# Redirect direct user-agent requests for www.katharou.comuf.com/sd_greg/index.html to http://greg.katharou.cu.cc/index.html
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /sd_(.+)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^sd_([^/]+)/(.*)$ http://$1.katharou.comuf.com/$2 [R=301,L]

# Rewrite subdomain requests to subdirectories except for www.katharou.cu.cc
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sd_
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.katharou\.cu.cc [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.katharou\.cu.cc
RewriteRule (.*) /sd_%1/$1 [L]
#
# Redirect direct user-agent requests for www.katharou.cu.cc/sd_greg/index.html to http://greg.katharou.cu.cc/index.html
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /sd_(.+)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^sd_([^/]+)/(.*)$ http://$1.katharou.cu.cc/$2 [R=301,L]

and I've also tried

# Rewrite subdomain requests to subdirectories except for katharou.comuf.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /sd_greg
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sd_
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.katharou\.comuf.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.katharou\.comuf.com
RewriteRule (.*) /sd_%1/$1 [L]
#
# Redirect direct user-agent requests for www.katharou.comuf.com/sd_greg/index.html to http://greg.katharou.cu.cc/index.html
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /sd_(.+)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^sd_([^/]+)/(.*)$ http://$1.katharou.comuf.com/$2 [R=301,L]

# Rewrite subdomain requests to subdirectories except for www.katharou.cu.cc
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /sd_greg
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sd_
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.katharou\.cu.cc [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.katharou\.cu.cc
RewriteRule (.*) /sd_%1/$1 [L]
#
# Redirect direct user-agent requests for www.katharou.cu.cc/sd_greg/index.html to http://greg.katharou.cu.cc/index.html
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /sd_(.+)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^sd_([^/]+)/(.*)$ http://$1.katharou.cu.cc/$2 [R=301,L]

Only to no avail, can I get some help? I'm sorry, I'm new to .htaccess mods.

[weilunt0219]

Ok, so now I've editted my .htaccess code. It still doesn't work though.

Here's what I have:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sd_
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.katharou\.cu.cc [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.katharou\.cu.cc
RewriteRule (.*) /sd_%1/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /sd_(.+)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^sd_([^/]+)/(.*)$ http://$1.katharou.cu.cc/$2 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
