Quick URL Question

[dezinerite]

I don't know what's wrong.
I want my site to be accessible when someone types: http://[B]www[/B].mysite.com

But it's only accessible when it's written in this form: http://[I]mysite[/I].com

When I try this: http://[B]www[/B].mysite.com it says something about having to modify the nameservers.

Anyone know what might be the problem, and how to solve it? Thanks!

Just add an htaccess to your root directory.

Options +Indexes
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mysite\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/$1 [L,R=301]

I believe, -Nick- has a sticky thread in the SE section on w/ www redirection

I tried to find that thread, I thought I had it bookmarked...

Could be anything. Please let us know your site URL.

I tried adding the code to my .htaccess. It directed the /mysite to the www.mysite instead of the other way round.

did you change all of your nameservers?

ask your host to check their apache record for your domain
found in httpd.conf
