    Hi,
    I have installed a directory on sub-domain of my site. YahooFanClub.
    So the directory url is:

    dir.mydomainname.com

    now the problem is Google is indexing pages from

    mydomainname.com/dir

    is there a way to stop it. I mean anyway I can redirect anything that goes to mydomainname.com/dir to dir.mydomainame.com ...

    Please help me its really annoying. Thanx in advance.

    Try adding this to your HTaccess file;

    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteEngine on
    rewritecond %{http_host} ^www.domain.com/dir [nc]
    rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://dir.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]

    Hopefully it'll work for you

    Yes there is a directory in there. :)

    So terryuk ... all I need to do is replace domain.com with my site address:
    www.yahoofanclub.com

    coz I am a little dumb in Rewrite rules. also tell me if I put this code in root .htaccess file or in the /dir .htaccess file ??

    Thanx again man ;)

    Replace the domain.com with your domain of course, and try uploading it to the root of your account.. that was only a suggestion.. if it doesn't work take it out and forget i ever said anything lol :D
