I have a standard CMS-like RewriteRule set up in my .htaccess:
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?slug=$1
Let's say I have a directory called "foo" in the root directory. For some reason, if you hit the page it causes a redirect:
http://www.mysite.com/foo --> http://www.mysite.com/foo?slug=foo
Removing the directory fixes the problem, but unfortunately, it's not an option. Does anyone know of a workaround?
