Re: apache rewritecond spits out "http://blah.com//whatever". double slashes?

["Aplus Dedicated Support, Jarrod Overson" <jarrodo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Disclaimer (and a big one at that), i have never used mod_rewrite before 
but if the problem is that you continuously grab a forward slash prefix 
then you can just place that outside the regex group that is to be 
backreferenced, for example


   RewriteRule ^/(.*)$  http://domain.com$1 [R=301,L]

(or, if a forward slash is special and needs to be escaped)

   RewriteRule ^\/(.*)$  http://domain.com$1 [R=301,L]

instead of

   RewriteRule ^(.*)$  http://domain.com$1 [R=301,L]
