[pLog-svn] Custom URLs and htaccess

 	Yes, some of that is confusing.

I would expect you would need the ForceType stuff, although perhaps your 
server is smart enough to read the first line by itself?

Also the category names seems like they should fail, since the error 
document should default to somewhere else.

The AcceptPathInfo is set by default on lots of servers.

Does your apache access and error log show anything interesting?

If you are using plain category_names, and not /category/category_name, it 
must be generating 404 errors (as it would even with the .htaccess file, 
unless you hard-coded the category names in .htaccess.
