    i have several sites that my server directs to www or non-www
    there is one site in particular that this is a problem
    if you type in www.mysite.com it will send you to mysite.com
    if i do a mod rewrite to send to www always i get a redirect loop error.

    how do i fix this?

    Check out your DNS record on your server, or check your .htaccess in public_html.

    What control panel do you have available?

    Yep, sounds like its script related - Thats why i said .htaccess.

    What script(s) are you running?

    Hi,

    It is almost certain that it is your script if with NOTHING in the .htaccess it is still redirecting. Do check and confirm this before proceeding.

    I'd suggest you list what scripts you have so someone can tell you where to make the required changes. Most likely this will be in the config.php, configuration.php, file depending on what script.
