    why not just use a basic html redirect in the first page? something like

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Your Page Title</title>
    <meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0;url=http://www.the-domain-you-want-to-redirect-to.com"></HEAD>
    <BODY>
    Optional page text here.
    </BODY>
    </HTML>

    yes :) it has to be ".htaccess" with no extension. You can just resave it through notepad.

    I did nothing with the spaces. I just removed those pages from server and uploaded the new once with a - in place of space. Now google has indexed my new pages. I have lost the PR of pages with a space :(
