Hi Amos, First of all thanks for replying immediately. But sorry to say that its a very small company. Bosses will not approve. > NOTE: redirectors do not "block" anything. They redirect.

But I suppose most of the people use redirector only for blocking hence I used word "block". But technically you are right. > Um, REDIRECT tag is documented 6 lines above DENIED.

The reason I am doing a rewrite instead of redirect is to avoid additional lookup by client. It also maintains original URL of the page in browser. Redirect otherwise changes the URL in location bar of the browser. And people get confused. And if I recall right then I have also seen some browser complaining about XSS or something, because URL domains do not match. I suppose as of now there is no solution. But thanks again.
