If you are not partial to your current 404 error page, set it to a
script that gets the http referer.  Then set up some sort of reference
between the old/new pages (hardcoded array, or a db would work).  If
there is a match - send them over to the new .php page - if not - maybe
give them your old 404 error page.

Subject: [PHP-WIN] Server-level redirect?

I'm converting an entire site from .html and .shtml files to .php.
Unfortunately a lot of the internal pages have been bookmarked by users,
and
so what I'd like to do is have a script that checks for the existence of
a
.php file with the same name (e.g. the file used to be contacts.shtml
and
now it is contacts.php) and redirects automatically.    I actually need
to
do this both on an IIS machine as well as Linux - and presumably the
method
will be different for each.
