Hi, I moved one directory one level up in the hierarchy of web pages, let's say: from: http://www.example.com/parent/child/ to: http://www.example.com/child/ I try to use mod_rewrite to handle this move, and redirect users for a while to the new location. I've read the URL Rewriting Guide at <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html>, from which I thought the following should handle this case: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/parent/child(.*) /child$1 [R] But it does not. When I try to access the old location, I simlpy get a 404. Is there a way to handle this problem? With mod_rewrite or any other "standard" module.
