Hello everyone,
here's some basic apache htaccess code which I want to re-write for 
lighttpd. But, apparently I cannot figure it out, so I though someone 
would help ;)

htaccess code is looks like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule main.css main.php

so basically I want to re-write main.css to main.php which is in styles 
folder (mydomain.com/styles/main.php)
but when I put this code into lighttpd config file it doesn't work.

$HTTP["host"] =~ "mydomain.com" {
var.app = "blahblah"
accesslog.filename = base + "/logs/" + app + ".access.log"
server.errorlog = base + "/logs/" + app + ".error.log"
load php app
url.rewrite-once = (
"^/styles/main.css" => "styles/main.php"
)
}

Thanks in advance

Ok, I somehow figured it out by myself:

$HTTP["host"] =~ "mydomain.com" {
 url.rewrite-once = (
"^/styles/main.css" => "/styles/main.php"
)
}
