mod_rewrite on .htaccess

[phpforfun]

So I just started using mod_rewrite, and it seems to be working great, this is what I setup:

options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)-group(.*).html index.php?view=$1&group=$2
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)-(.*).html index.php?view=$1&subView=$2&to=$3
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*).html index.php?view=$1&subView=$2
RewriteRule ^(.*).html index.php?view=$1

Thus "hosting-unlimited.html" will lead to "?view=hosting&subView=unlimited"
BUT.. now the 404 wont work
Example: http://amphosted.com/asdfasdfasdf Should be a 404.
Also.. Amp Hosted - Main is actually a path I need to be viewed, it shows a tutorial on using rvsitebuilder, but when I use mod_rewrite, it doesnt work, it shows the index.php page of the path before, obviously deformed in the fact that the script paths are incorrect.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Make a custom 404 page or whatever and then in the .htaccess add this

ErrorDocument 404 /Your404Page.html

[mop]

That is what I was going to suggest as well.

Well, I used that myself on my website... Although if I remember correctly the default 404 still worked for me.. I just made those custom pages just because I wanted.. not because it did not work... I don't know why that is happening... maybe some settings are not correct on your server..

Yeah, the default 404 should still work, as well as
Amp Hosted - Main Because its an actual index page, but it does't, but links that arent real look the same, like
http://amphosted.com/asdfjasdklfjkkjdsjjdjdjjjjdjdjd,

Edit:, I changed index.html to index.php and it works, but index.html should still work

Hmm, that's strange... how come the .html did not work...
