My .htaccess tricks
To show a directory listing specifically in that directory only place this in the .htaccess file that resides in that folder:
IndexOptions -FancyIndexing Options +Indexes
To deny a directory listing, place this the the .htaccess in that directory or in a higher directory:
Options -Indexes
Now a 403 error will be returned instead.
To redirect to a subdirectory or a folder:
RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index.(.*)?$ http://domain.com/subfolder/ [r=301]
This will redirect any attempt to access a file named index.something to your subfolder, whether the file exists or not.
A simple HTML redirect is an alternative:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Your Page Title</title> <meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0;url=http://www.the-domain-you-want-to-redirect-to.com"></HEAD> <BODY> Optional page text here. </BODY> </HTML>
