Hey guys, im having a problem with the following code

```php

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ index.php?page=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^suspended.page
RewriteEngine off

```

I want to say that if the REQUEST\_FILENAME is not a directory and not a file that exists in the root directory, then follow: RewriteRule ^(.\*).html$ index.php?page=$1 [L]

If REQUEST\_FILENAME is a directory or a file or is ‘suspended.page’, i want to turn the Rewrite engine off. This is what I have, but it gives me a 404 not found error on something like: [http://www.domainanme.com/Home.html](http://www.domainanme.com/Home.html)

But it works for [http://www.domainanme.com/suspended.page/](http://www.domainanme.com/suspended.page/)  
or  
[http://www.domainanme.com/testdirectory/](http://www.domainanme.com/testdirectory/)

Thanks
