Thanks for the reply, unfortunately that is the problem I'm trying to get around.
The scenario I'm trying to find a solution for is this. We have 200+ html pages on our web site that call a script which interacts with another server. If this other server becomes unavailable I want to be able to redirect the requests to this script to another one stored locally on the web server without having to change each of the 200+ html pages. Is there any way of doing this or is it a case that we have to change the 200+ html pages to do the redirect? > Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2010 11:47:32 -0400 > From: cove...@gmail.com > To: users@httpd.apache.org > Subject: Re: [us...@httpd] Redirect Command Loses Form Data > > On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 11:05 AM, Robert Archer <cmsra...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > > > We're trying to configure apache to re-direct from one script to another by > > using the redirect statement in the http.conf file.
