I just re-read the entire available documentation for RewriteBase and don't see how it can be useful to me. If I understood that short description right, I would need a separate RewriteBase for every URL through which this directory can be accessed. This is two separate URLs, one on domain A with a path name and one on domain B with NO path name specified. But as I'm spending more time with it, I think that mod_rewrite just isn't capable of doing what I want. If it could execute arbitrary URL modification code, I could tell it what I mean. But the provided declarative syntax is too weak. So I'm considering altering the directory structure so that my subdomain is no longer accessible as a subdirectory of the 2nd-level domain. When removing a "www." from the URL is enough, my solution seems to work already. -- Yves Goergen "LonelyPixel" <nospam.list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Visit my web laboratory at http://beta.unclassified.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
