I could write out a long and descriptive post describing the process, but
the easiest way is to point you to a freshly posted topic on mezzoblue.
It covers, more or less, exactly what you want to do.  It can be found
at: http://www.mezzoblue.com/archives/2004/08/05/virtual_host/

What you ask really can't be handled, at least to my knowledge, by using
.htaccess rules.  It must be done through the actual httpd.conf, assuming
you are using any version of Apache. You can see more descriptive examples
on the apache website, specifically:  
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/vhosts/examples.html

Good luck, if you need some specific help with anything feel free to email
me privately and I'll walk you through some of the process.
