   Though my permalinks *seem* to be working fine, I am very new to Wordpress, and would appreciate it if someone could confirm that it's okay if my .htaccess file contains only this:

   # BEGIN WordPress

   # END WordPress

   As I said, I *seem* to have pretty permalinks, but I'm not sure. I'm on an Apache server, with Bluehost, and they support mod_rewrite. WP v2.6.

   TIA for help -

   Turns out the .htaccess file exists in two places. The one on the public_html level is empty, as shown above. The one on the public_html/blog level has got code in it, which I have to assume is the correct code. It looks like this:

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /blog/
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
   </IfModule>

   # END WordPress

   So I guess everything is okay. Maybe this will help someone else similarly confused! : )
