Question

I have made one file say a.php. Now I want some thing like if one tries to open a.php then He should ne redirected to another page of same directory of site.

I want it throght .htaccess file.
I have written this code in my .htaccess file

RewriteEngine On
# This allows you to redirect index.html to a specific subfolder
Redirect /b.php /a.php 

both pages are stored in same directory..

Answer 1

You could try

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule /a\.php /otherfile.php [R=301,L]

Change the filenames were necessary.
If you could be more specific as to what you wish to achieve,perhaps I can supply you with a better solution.

Question that might help:

• Is it only for the file a.php, or there are other request that will be handled the same way as this pattern?

Hope it helps!
