I thought this would be straightforward, but for some reason I can't get my head around it, (having a bad day).

I need to ensure that anything going to the root folder (www.mydomain.com) is redirected to www.mydomain.com/folder/ but I just can;t seem to get my head around doing it.

I though this would work, but it doesn't:

RewriteRule /.* http\://www.mydomain.co.uk/articles/ [I,RP]

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks

Steve

Fantastic, works a treat.

I've tried to breakdown the code you gave me and still can't work it out.

Thanks for the help.

It is quite simple:

If URI is "slash" (/) followed by "anything except slash and question mark" ([^/?]*) followed by "optional question mark followed by anything" ((?:\?.*)?)
redirect it to http://.../articles followed by original URI ($0).
