Then save the file as .htaccess and FTP it using ASCII not binary to the root folder of the domain you wish to redirect from. That will divert the index page to the new index page, but you can add as many lines as you like if you want to divert individual pages. Note that the first path that you are directing away from is always relative to the root folder, the one that you are directing to is always absolute. As this is a permanent redirect you won't get penalised for using it. _____________________________ I have a higher and grander standard of principle than George Washington.

Doing anything to the .htaccess file will corrupt your extensions far as I know. _____________________________ "My strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it" Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Blood, Sweat & Rust - A Land Rover restoration project (in reply to treetopsranch)

If so, you can user some code to state it is a 301 redirect _____________________________ Corey R.

treetopsranch Posts: 1005 From: Cottage Grove, OR, USA Status: offline	RE: redirect - 4/7/2008 13:15:40 Corey, I have been able to make some changes to an .htaccess file on a web that had FP extensions. But, you must really be careful to not change the order of the FP stuff located there. _____________________________ Don from TreeTops Ranch, Oregon "I've got a taste for quality and luxury" (in reply to coreybryant)

coreybryant Posts: 2422 Joined: 3/17/2002 From: Castle Rock CO USA Status: offline	RE: redirect - 4/7/2008 15:19:14 No, sorry I was not suggesting to use htaccess. I was just wondering if the pages were ASP, .NET, or PHP. I know there is server side code that can be put into a page to respond with a 301. ASP Tips - 301 Moved Permanently - Redirecting URLs with ASP shows an example with ASP, but it seems that might not help since the page(s) need to be htm _____________________________ Corey R.
