This is not making sense. First, why should nobody be using .htaccess?
Second, how does mod_rewrite be an alternative to .htaccess? mod_rewrite is a module that uses a rule-based rewriting engine to rewrite requested URLs on the fly. .htaccess USES mod_rewrite when it comes to parsing rewrite rules within .htaccess. But .htaccess is more; it allows you to set access rules in a per-directory context. How would you do that with mod_rewrite?
