    it doesn't work..

    PHP:
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond 
    %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?atraf-f.net\.net/upload$ [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.atraf-f.net/$1 [R=301,L]
    i've edited it, i need it to redirect all the pages from in a directory to an other domain name,
    here i'vw just tested the code so i've used the same domain, what to do ?

    The inherent problem I see in your editing capabilities is you are changing all the \. to .

    I am not sure why its not working but when I visited the forum I saw you are setting up the new forum and so why not just move the files from the upload directory to the parent one. Unnecessary redirect would not help.

    Does your web host support the .htaccess redirect? It may be the case that it does not.

    But then you should always use the code I gave in the root folder only.
