Mod rewrite access folder before root

Hi everyone,

I am wondering if it is possible to use htaccess to access folders BEFORE the root folder...

I have designed two seperate sites that get hosted seperately as subdomains. The file structure on the server is then something like:

/
     www.site.com/
          folder1/
          folder2/
          folder3/
     admin.site.com/
          folder1
          folder2/
          folder3/

Code (markup):

The folder "www.site.com" is the root directory of subdomain www.site.com and the folder "admin.site.com" is the root of the subdomain admin.site.com

The problem is that I know need to access /www.site.com/folder2/ from /admin.site.com/mainsiteaccess/ for example. Is this possible, given that they are seperately hosted subdomains?

I was hoping to be able to route say admin.site.com/mainsiteaccess/* to www.site.com/*

Thanks!

 

Depends exactly what you want to do but short answer is yes.

An iframe or a redirect should do but it does depend on what you want to achieve.
