Mod_Rewrite with .htaccess is not working

I just learnt about url-rewrite for my website with .htacess. My actual url is:

localhost/index.php?view=some-page

So i write this RewriteRule like this:

RewriteRule  ^/([^/]*)/?$   /index.php?view=$1 [NC,L]

When i typed localhost/homepage on my browser, It does not work, it displays error 404 object not found. What have i done wrong please show me.

Many thanks

This should work in your DocumentRoot/.htaccess:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule  ^([^/]+)/?$ index.php?view=$1 [QSA,L]

Leading slash is not matched in htaccess.

This link from step 6 helped me

When i was playing around with rewrites i had to enable it and tell apache where the pages were stored
