I don't think you can use full URI's in a rewrite rule without using the R (redirect) flag. So I think the rewrite rule you want is: RewriteRule ^/$ https://www.mydomain.com/beginhere.html [R] But is www.mydomain.com the name of the apache server you're actually configuring, because then you don't need to use the full domain, just RewriteRule ^/$ /beginhere.html [R] And in this case, you don't need the [R] flag if you don't want, but it the new URL won't show up in the user's browser without that flag, it will be a transparent rewrite performed only the server, the user will be oblivious to it. -Brian -- 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.
