Redirect help needed..

[Realpascal]

I want to make the following redirection:

www.mydomain/folder
redirected to:
www.mydomain/folder/folder2

But when I use a .htaccess
Redirect /folder http://www.mydomain.com/folder/folder1
The server goes into an endless loop.

I must be going nuts.. What am I doing wrong ?

[Realpascal]

Can anyone help me out here ?

use meta redirect?

[fris]

can use php to do that.

http://www.php.net/header

look at the info there

[darksoul]

heh, obviously.
Redirect /folder will redirect all requests, including /folder/folder2
You could redirect using mod_rewrite

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}      !^/folder/folder2.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}       ^/folder/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)       http://www.domain.com/folder/folder2/$1 [R,L]

use meta redirect?

Possible, but I would prefer to use .htaccess. Thanks for the suggestion anyway..

http://www.php.net/header

Thanks Fris, I didn't know that option

[grumpy]

in the page < s c r i p t > window.location='the url'< / s c r i p t >

without the spaces

Thanks for all help, guys !

Gave Darksoul's option a try, and it worked great.
