Htaccess file no longer working when moved from web root to folder

The following in my htacess file works to remove add a # character to the url. So mysite.com/page2 becomes mysite.com/#page2

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ /#$1 [L,NE,R]

This works fine however my site is actually going to be in a folder in the web root, not the root itself. So I need something like existingsite.com/mysite/page2 to redirect to existingsite.com/mysite/#page2

Ideally I would like to have this controlled by the htaccess thats within my site folder so that I dont need to change the htaccess file for the main site. Ive moved the site (including the htaccess file) into a folder in the web root but now its not working like before (when it was in the web root).

This works when placed in the htaccess file in the folder of the new site (not the web root).

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ /santa7/#$1 [L,NE,R]

Use rewritebase:

RewriteBase /mysite/

And your existing rewrites:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /mysite/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ /#$1 [L,NE,R]
