But, as a perfectionist, if you saw a page that was broken or wrong, you'd probably like it to be fixed quickly, rather than remaining broken for days while it was being arranged for a system administrator to make the change (which might take a day or two or seven), or having the redirect done with client-side javascript. Ideally it would be httpd.conf and there would be someone available 7 days to make changes on request within a matter of hours. Given that we're relying on a small number (1?) of busy people, I think it makes sense to let the work be spread between other people (and the servers), using .htaccess. -- Michael _______________________________________________ mozilla-documentation mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-documentation
