Hey Kurt,
Its finally working.
It was a problem with the bracket.
I was using these brackets <> in the htaccess file while I was supposed to use the other one.
I just changed it and it worked.
Take a look http://www.silentarrow.com/cgi-bin/fatbomb/fatbomb.cgi/?keywords=federer&skin=skin1&start=0&length=20 and http://www.silentarrow.com/federer.html
Now, I just need to find out how to put something in the left and right columns. Is it a skins thing or a template thing, I dont know.I will go and check the skins thread now.
bye,
faraz
