Mod_rewrite, small problem

Greetings,

I have a small problem with mod_rewrite.
The rewriting works well, when a user calls http://mywebsite/home.html
the serve returns well "http://mywebsite/index.php?p=home".
My problem is that the adress bar shows
"http://mywebsite/index.php?p=home" when I'd like it to show
"http://mywebsite/home.html".
How can I get around this ?

Thanks in advance Folks,

Ludovic

Not nice is your habbit to not quote the part of the previous post you're
reflecting to.
It makes reading a thread very hard for those not using a web frontend.

point taken, thanks for the heads-up

Well thanks for the answer Hans buuuuut unfortunatly it doesn't work.
My htaccess is as follows :

------begin-------
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)\.html$
http://mywebsite.com/myFolder/index.php?p=$1
--------end ----------

and still the adress bar shows "http://mywebsite/index.php?p=home"
when I'd like it to show
"http://mywebsite/home.html".

help ? :)

Test for me
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)\.html$ index.php?p=$1

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)\.html$ /myFolder/index.php?p=$1
