    Ok, first thing is, you should avoid using .htaccess if possible. It’s not about using .htaccess to get what you need it’s about using the Apache directives. If you have access to Apache config or vhost that is much better as any directive can be used there. Please start with when not to use .htaccess directly from Apache at the link below.

    When not to use .htaccess

    Using .htaccess gives a small performance hit on the server for every request because it scans every directory looking for this file to apply any directives.
    Most big sites don’t use .htaccess, they put it in the config or vhost file and leaves it with AllowOverride None.

    Now one of the most important things you will need to know is mod_rewrite. Mod_rewrite uses Regex for most of it’s pattern matching.

    http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html

    This site is helpful in understanding regex because it is quite complicated at first and still can be even with experience.

    http://www.regular-expressions.info/tutorial.html

    You will also probably want to look over what can be done with Apache in general versus how to use just .htaccess.

    Learning the core features will help you a lot and it tell you which features can be used with .htaccess or only Config
