Check For Module Presence in .htaccess
One of my favorite Apache modules is mod_rewrite. mod_rewrite allows me to manipulate page URLs so that I can search engine friendly URLs. Not every Apache server has the mod_rewrite module installed so you will want to add a conditional statement within your .htaccess file to make sure it's there.
The .htaccess
#Wordpress's .htaccess code
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
If the "mod_rewrite.c" module is present, that means that mod_rewrite is available and will be used. If not, the mod_rewrite code will be ignored. Using this conditional statement will prevent 500 Internal Server Errors.

![Telephone Link Protocol]()
We've always been able to create links with protocols other than the usual HTTP, like mailto, skype, irc ,and more; they're an excellent convenience to visitors. With mobile phone browsers having become infinitely more usable, we can now extend that convenience to phone numbers:

So what is the fallback for when it is not available? If you do this you need to make sure your code has a way to handle it, especially if your mod_rewrite conditions are passing get vars.
I personally would like to know about a 500 server error so that I could fix the problem.
Would it be fine to include this code into httpd.conf itself?
Or is that a bad idea?
Thanks David.
Nope, the answer is it is bad idea because, Rewrite Base is only valid per-directory config files.
:D
