Switch on the debug mode of apache. So you can see if your rewirting works: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7738170/how-to-debug-htaccess-rewrite-script — Jens, Jul 10 '16 at 11:08

Your rule is causing an infinite internal redirection ( /code.php => /code.php.... ) because ([^/]*) also matches your rewrite destination /code.php and rewrites it to itself , to fix this ,you need to exclude the target /code.php from the rule

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^((?!code\.php)[^/]*)$ /code.php?code=$1 [L]
