[vox-tech] Need help creating rewritecond in Apache
The problem: For the next few days, when visitors browse our site, we need to redirect them to a different subdomain, www2. However, there are some resources on our original site that visitors will need to view from that subdomain; these resources are typically retrieved by a script called view.php. In the resources subdirectory there's an .htaccess file that redirects back to the main domain, but, of course, the rewrite script on the main server simply sends the user back to the www2 subdomain. Can anyone help? -- Richard S.

Alex, Actually, at this point, I just convinced my boss that it would be easier to copy the resource files over to the temporary subdomain, rather than try to come up with a complicated set of rewrite rules. Thanks, though. -- Richard S.

Re: [vox-tech] Need help creating rewritecond in Apache
Richard, If I remember correctly, rewrite rules are order dependent. So you may want to use the rewrite engine instead of redirect. Then, you could do something like RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/view.php_dir - [L] RewriteRule ^(.)$ http://www2.yoursite.com/$1 -[P] HTH, --Susan On Dec 16, 2008, at 4:08 PM, Richard S.
