I've spent the better part of 2 hours searching and reading these forums and the Apache doc's links... and I am now thoroughly confused.
If someone could help me with a couple of soup to nuts example for two of my redirects maybe I can take these and expand them for the rest of my needs.
What I am doing is replacing some pages/scripts with new php versions. I'd like to rewrite the URL's rather than simply add HTML redirects. So the users will have a more seamless transition.
scenario 1 ( a simple one):
http://www.domain.com/file.html -> http://www.domain.com/file.php
scenario 2 (a more complex one):
http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/script.cg ... ata=123456 -> http://www.domain.com/new.php?data=123456
Any help would be appreciated... I really want to learn this stuff and I think maybe just some examples that apply to my real world situations might be the catalyst to me moving forward.
Thanks in advance.
