.htaccess How to redirect to index.html with params but the param value is same as a folder name

Question

The routing url is like 'my_website/:param'

But my location contain a folder name is as same as the params. So when I browse with http://my_website/apple. The browser will display the folder instead of pass the value 'apple' to the web.

How should I set the .htaccess?Thanks The following only work when the folder with same value is not exist.

<ifModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} -f [OR]
  RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} -d

  RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
  RewriteRule ^(.*) index.html [NC,L]
</ifModule>

Thanks for showing your htaccess file in your question, could you please do let us know link http://my_website/apple should be served by which file(eg--> .php file etc) from backend? — RavinderSingh13

Based on your shown samples, could you please try following. Please clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.

RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ index.html [L]

OR if you are looking only for link which starts with apple then try following.

RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^apple index.html [NC,L]

Problem in OP's tried code: RewriteRule ^(.*) index.html [NC,L] will create an loop because there is no condition mentioned, so its going true each time for each uri.
