Anders- For images: RewriteRule ^/.*\.(png|jpeg|jpg|gif|bmp)$ /address_of_your_image.png [L,NC,R=302] For everything else: RewriteRule ^/.*$ /down_time.html [L,R=302] That should do it, I think. You can add any other image extensions you might have to the list in the first one. You could probably do it by mime type, as well, but you'll probably need to do a sub-request and rewrite conditions. I actually use something very similar to the first one for battling hotlinking. I have a page on my site that describes it, and gives a detailed walk through of the regular expressions if you want to learn more: https://brianpmearns.com/bpm/shanghai Hope that helps. -Brian P.S., before someone else says something, the =302 probably isn't needed on the R flags, because I think Apache uses 302 as the default. But it might be a good idea anyway, just to make sure they don't end up as 301's, because that's not what you want (this is a temporary condition, right?) -- Feel free to contact me using PGP Encryption: Key Id: 0x3AA70848 Available from: http://pgp.mit.edu/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
