Any ideas? TIA! What did you try already? What happened? As I read it, you want to put up a page that says, "Site has moved" rather than redirect users (so that the browser reloads the new site). Correct? Something as simple as; RedirectMatch ^/.*$ /that_one_html_doc.html ...should work (see docs for details).
