rewrite user url

[acctman]

can someone help me rewrite the user url from http://www.domain.com/view/USER.html to http://www.domain.com/USER/ or http://www.domain.com/USER

so if a user types in http://www.domain.com/USER internally the user is sent to http://www.domain.com/view/USER.html, but I would also need to omit folders such at CHAT, TEMP, FORUMS, etc from being rewritten

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On      
RewriteBase /

# force www   
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# end www
      
# start underscore -> dash conversion
RewriteRule !\.(html|php)$ - [S=4]
RewriteRule ^([^_]*)_([^_]*)_([^_]*)_([^_]*)_(.*)$ $1-$2-$3-$4-$5 [E=uscor:Yes]
RewriteRule ^([^_]*)_([^_]*)_([^_]*)_(.*)$ $1-$2-$3-$4 [E=uscor:Yes]
RewriteRule ^([^_]*)_([^_]*)_(.*)$ $1-$2-$3 [E=uscor:Yes]
RewriteRule ^([^_]*)_(.*)$ $1-$2 [E=uscor:Yes]
   
RewriteCond %{ENV:uscor} ^Yes$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

[acctman]

i tried just using this

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

and got an error, i copied the entire thing and same error

[richardk]

[NC} should be [NC].

What error are you getting?
What does your error log say is causing the error?
Does the file /view/USER.html exist?

[acctman]

I'm getting an Internal Server Error page, sites not loading.
