Hi.Am I interpreting this correctly, that the .htaccess file you are talking about, is the one that is in the original /techblog location ?
If so, and without taking my word for it, isn't it so for a RewriteRule that is in a .htaccess file in such a location "/techblog", that the original URL you are comparing against already has the "/techblog" prefix removed ? (because you are "already there" so to speak)
Maybe you want to try this instead : RewriteRule /(.*)$ http://www.foo.com/$1 [R=301] Matthew Sacks wrote:
