I haven't actually had to write one that allowed different domains (like .net and .com) and force www. without changing the TLD. I think it might be possible but not entirely sure how to do it. I think in this case I would end up resorting to PHP if possible since it'd be a lot easier to sort out with some if's and such. I think if you can get match say example.net or example.com, then use that value in the rewriterule to tack www. on to it that might work. Not sure how you use HTTP_HOST within the rewrite rule line itself. -- Jeremy Jeremy Knope Web Programmer Rainstorm Consulting: http://www.rainstormconsulting.com "Designing Strategies for Internet Success." jerome (at mark) rainstorminc.com Phone: 207-866-3908 Fax: 207-866-0297 On Jun 1, 2008, at 3:23 PM, Dan Kriwitsky wrote: > > --- Jeremy Knope <jerome (at mark) rainstormconsulting.com> wrote: > >> I've ran into this issue before, and would be awesome if a feature >> was >> implemented to control it.
