Hello

I could really use some help. I am working for the Guatemalan Library Project and I changed today at DirectAdmin the direction of our site.
As it says in at site-helper.com:
Site redirection allows you to forward visitors to somewhere else on your site, or to another web site altogether.

So like it says there, I did not changed the first box. Just left it like it says there: probigua.org ........and the slash in the box I didnīt changed either.

Second Box
Form of redireccting: 302 Temporal....i did not changed

Third Box: I typed in the new desired determination:
The new URL:http://www.probigua.org/files/es/index-1.html

So i wanted that surfers forwarded automatically from www.probigua.org to
www.probigua.org/files/es/index-1.html

Now when I click on my site (www.probigua.org) this adress apears:

files/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.htmlfiles/es/index-1.html

and of course the browser gives an error.
This page is not redirecting properly, something like that.

I would appreciate so much your help.
I even canīt change it backwards. Our site is out from the web. Help.

Thanks and best wishes

Hello,

You'd better in that case use mod_rewrite or PHP script with redirect, or even JavaScript or Meta-Tag redirectors.

Create a file index.php in public_html with following content:


<?php
header("Location:http://www.probigua.org/files/es/index-1.html\n");
?>


remove your redirection from .htaccess (via directadmin)
