301 redirect from main site adding :category

**DeluxeEdition** · 03-06-2008, 07:07 PM

I'm back with yet another question - Sorry

I moved my old articles from a custom made CMS over to the Forum when I wrote my redirect on the main sites .htaccess I used

Code:

redirect 301 /articles/Research-Reviews.html http://www.mysite.com/forum/forum60.html

but for some reason when it redirects the URL comes out like

Code:

http://www.mysite.com/forum/forum60.html?category=Research-Reviews

How do I get it to stop doing this? All I want it to redirect to is http://www.mysite.com/forum/forum60.html since it has PR and plenty of incoming links I want it to redirect the right way.

Thanks.

See this... Tech555.com - View Single Post - Some useful functions...

make changes, simply save the file as ASP or ASPX, depending on what technology you use, upload it and set it as your default document, this way you won't lose your search engine rankings even !!

Note:- Its ASP/ASP.NET, you need to have a windows server to run this..

I am using the same ASP script to redirect my board !!

Here's the PHP 301 redirect code:-

Code:

<?
Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
Header( "Location: http://www.new-url.com" );
?>

i hope you are done now !!
