I am having a problem with this and was hoping you could give me a steer in the right direction. When I upload the .htaccess file and then enter in the url without the URL e.g website.co.nz the browser is redirecting to www.website.co.nz/www/htdocs/ I cannot work out where it is picking up the /www/htdocs element from. Can you shed any light? Great post... thanks for sharing! I am having a problem with this

For instance, I have a page called "www.xxx.com/abc/1" But I don't use /abc/ folder anymore and want to redirect it to /def/ folder instead. So, www.xxx.com/abc/ redirects to www.to xxx.com/def/ But when I create a .htaccess with the codes below; URL PERMANENT REDIRECT Redirect permanent /abc http://www.xxx.com/def Then, abc/1/ folder also wants to redirect to /def/1/ Since there is no page called def/1/ on my server and no chance to create/move the page due to some complexities, how do you think I can resolve this issue with .htaccess?

I don't have subdomains so far, but I thought I'd implement the line on Comment #25 just in case. But when I changed <code>RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.</code> into RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www|sub1|sub2)\., the redirecting stopped. Redirecting resumed as soon as I switched back to the original line. Any ideas why? Should I have added the line in Comment #25 instead of substituting? Thanks.

I'd go to a SEO-specific forum and ask there. I hope you can sort that out quickly. Sorry renuka, I can't help with that. I'd go to a SEO-specific forum and ask there.

Not everyone uses Apache as a web server. It would be great if you can also create an IIS version for non-www
