When posts and other http CRUD methods stop working in Rails
# You probably used the html5-boilerplate gem..
# Comment this part at line 348 and it'll start working again.

# Rewrite "domain.com/foo -> domain.com/foo/"
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(\.[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,5}|/|#(.*))$

flush_rewrite_rules( false );
}

?>
