Permalinks on a Lycos server problem!

Hi I am having a permalink problem! Basically I'm running the latest version of Wordpress on a Lycos server, with the latest version of SimplePress. They work fine I have no problems but I have to use the “Ugly Links” as my lycos server doesn't have PATHINFO.

I have found this modification to my index file and htaccess which allows me to use permalinks on the site.

http://martijn.van.steenbergen.nl/journal/2007/07/01/pretty-wordpress-permalinks-without-pathinfo/

It does work but there is a problem it works fine on WordPress pages, but for some reason the SimplePress forum pages won't correctly hyperlink! They are still there, I can see them if I enter the correct “permalink” URL but for some reason instead of the URL being http://www.mysite.com/forum/simplepresspage/ it is http://www.mysite.com/index.phpforum/simpepress/ a index.php gets added, if I delete that from the URL the right page appears! Is there anyway I can change some code somewhere to stop that extra index.php from appearing in the URLs?

Thanks for any help!

Sadly not one of my areas opf expertise but youy could try the following to see if it helps…

In sf-startup.php - function sf_set_rewrite_rules() - find the following lines of code:

    if ($wp_rewrite->using_index_permalinks())
    {
        $slugmatch ='index.php/'.$slug;
    } else {
        $slugmatch = $slug;
    }

Try commenting them all out (by putting a fouble slash at the start of each line). That's where I would start anyway.
