mod rewrite help

[idtstudios2]

I have been trying to get this right for about three hours now and I just can't figure it out.

I'm trying to turn:

http://site.com/day.php?day=18122005

into:

http://site.com/day/18122005

and this is my latest rendition of my htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^day/(.*)$ day.php?day=$1

any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,
Andrew
