Thanks for the advice. There was no mention of this use of htaccess on the ISP's web site help (they do explain how to arrange password based access using htaccess) so I may discover that they don't support the redirect. I guess I'll try it and see what happens. Thanks for taking the trouble to email me. Regards Steve Mullock > Le mar 17/02/2004 à 11:32, Steve Mullock a écrit : >> Your advice sounds reasonable.
