.htaccess 301 redirect

[ℓєσ gнσѕт]

I need this page:
http://www.bluehumor.org/google/default.htm

to Redirect to this page:
http://www.bluehumor.org/google/google.htm

Via the .htaccess file. Is there an easy code to do this? None of the standard .htaccess codes are working :-\

Why not add a HTML redirect code to the default code?

If you mean a meta tag redirect, that's because search engines have issues with that sort of a redirect. By using a 301 redirect they find it easier.

It would be silly to use something that would hurt us like that on this type of site 😛

you should just do:

Redirect 301 /default.htm http://www.bluehumor.org/google/google.htm

or if you have mod_rewrite installed (99% chance you do), try

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^default.htm$ google.htm [R=301]
