texte = Sorry, I haven't stated the purpose. What I need to do is clean up all the poorly crafted URLs that I've been using. I don't want to throw away all the links from sites I don't control into those pages. The best way to pass those visitors along and clean up the search engines is to 301 the visitors. I don't need double the amount of URLs with the same content. That is search engine poison. Bill -----Original Message----- From: Donovan Brooke
