Question

i want redirect to new/index.php when people type

site.com
site.com/index.php
site.com/index.html
site.com/index.htm

So this code below maybe right ?

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^index\.(html|php|htm)$ new/index.php

Answer 1

Use this instead :

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(index\.(html?|php))?$ /new/index.php [L,NC,QSA,R=301]

If you don’t want people to see there address bar changed to /new, remove the R=301 flag.
