URLRewrite problem (seems it continues rewriting in spite of [L])

It seems very simple, but I'm already about knocking my head against
walls.

I want urls like "http://host/dir/blabla" to be rewritten to
"http://host/dir/script.php?param=blabla"

The following .htaccess is put into /dir/

---- .htaccess ---
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ script.php?param=$1 [L]
-----------------------

The script.php ( in /dir/) gets "param" as "script.php".

If I use something like
RewriteRule ^([^s].*)$ script.php?param=$1 [L]
the engine works as I want.

So, what's up?

Thank you!

Your destination after rewrite is in the same folder, either
put it elsewhere or exclude it from the rewrite:
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_URL} !/script\.php$
RewriteRule (.*) script.php?param=$1 [L]

An internal redirect is performed after a URL rewrite, which will
re-execute all of the rules in .htaccess causing infinite recursion. I
like to check if a status variable is set and be done. Also you don't
need the end-of-line anchor since regexps are greedy by default.

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_ISDONE} =""
RewriteRule ^(.*) script.php?param=$1 [E=ISDONE:1,L]
