 <p>If you want anything starting with page1 to be rewritten, this will work:</p> <pre><code> RewriteRule ^page1.* http://www.example.com/newpage.htm [R=301,L] </code></pre> <p>If you want only page1 and page1.htm to be rewritten, but not e.g. page1whatever, this should work:</p> <pre><code> RewriteRule ^page1(.htm)? http://www.example.com/newpage.htm [R=301,L] </code></pre>
