    Hi there..
    I have put my .htaccess on the server in the main root


    I want it so that when someone goes to www.mydomain.com/folder it actually sends the user to www.mydomain.com

    how can i do this?

    i've tried

    Redirect 301 /folder* http://www.mydomain.com/*

    and

    Redirect 301 /folder http://www.mydomain.com/

    and

    Redirect /folder http://www.mydomain.com/




    none of these work! What am i doing wrong?

    thanks for the help
