Anuroopsundd - that's a link, not an answer. Note: I am NOT redirecting to another folder. I am redirecting requests for the folder (/docs/) to a file within that folder. <br />
<br />
To repeat: redirect 301 /docs/ http://mydomain.com/docs/special-page.html&nbsp;does not seem to work.

Many thanks arober11! I've used the &quot;DirectoryIndex&quot; solution.

Greetings<br />
<br />
I have a folder on my web site - let's call it /docs. <br />
<br />
I need to be able to redirect requests &quot;permanently&quot; for &quot;http://mydomain.com/docs/&quot;&nbsp;to &quot;http://mydomain.com/docs/special-page.html&quot;. But I don't want it to effect requests for other pages in that folder e.g. &quot;http://mydomain.com/docs/page1.html&quot;&nbsp;etc<br />
<br />
I tried:<br />
redirect 301 /docs/ http://mydomain.com/docs/special-page.html<br />
But that DID seem to mess up access to the other pages!
