How to Hide File Extensions in URL

Question

Hello Again!
I've tried to edit my .htaccess file to hide file extensions in my URL, but nothing I try works. I get "Page Not Found" when I try to remove the .html from my pages. Here is the code I have used:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html !-f
RewriteRule ^{.*}$ $1.html
I've also used
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^{.*}$ $1.html [L,QSA]
Neither worked.
Any thoughts would be helpful! Thanks!

When you save the document there is a check box in the save window that gives you the option to hide the extension. I've checked this for both Pages & Word. I can't be certain that all applications give this option.
You can of course delete the extension name from individual files already on your computer by selecting the file name as if editing the name and just deleting the extension part of the name.
