preCharge Forums - View Single Post - Need help on how to do a redirect via htaccess, Frontpage2003 and Apache

HI,

I have been trying to use a redirect command in my .htaccess file. The website was created via Frontpage2003 and it resides on an apache server.

The redirect command I use is:

Redirect /Ceiling%20Fan%20Wiring.htm Ceiling Fan Wiring | House Wire | Electrical Light

I am trying to do this redirect so that my site visitors stop getting 404 errors when they click on a search result from Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc.

This is critical to resolve as my public_html area is max’d out (nearly 500 files), and as a result, I need to create sub-directories and moves files. As I move files to these new subdirectories I will get many pages with 404 errors based on Search engine results.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
aaron
