Htaccess for css & gif's

Server Config

Why does this not work:


<link href="../original.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

/*htaccess*/
redirect 301 /original.css 
http://www.sitedotcom/a/TEST.css

I’ve noticed gif’s don’t want to 301 either.

dd,

The reason is the REQUIRED syntax of the Redirect statement:

Redirect {optional error status} {file/directory} {absolute redirection} … all on one line

As just explained in another thread, the file/directory part apparently should not be an absolute link (as you have with an “internal” absolute link).

The absolute redirection does NOT require the full URL as /a/TEST.css would have sufficed.
