I asked this question in Stackoverflow but one of the respondents told me to ask it in here instead. I wonder if this is something that can be done in htaccess?

I have this URL:

https://www.website.com/folder/New.jsp?par=new1

...which I want to redirect to:

 https://www.website.com/folder/New.jsp

how should I do that?

Basically I have par=new1|new2|new3|new4 that would like to be redirected to https://www.website.com/folder/New.jsp.

Any help from you will be very much appreciated. Thanks!

If you just need the parameters taken off, it's pretty straight forward

RedirectMatch https://www.website.com/folder/New.jsp(\?par=.[a-z])  https://www.website.com/folder/New.jsp

No mod_rewrite needed.

Thanks, sysadmin. I'm pretty new with this mod_rewrite so please forgive me with my naive question. I tried to place this code in .htacess along with other redirects but it gave our site a 404. So I also tried placing it under the RewriteEngine on RewriteOptions inherit but nothing happens. Where should this be placed? – liza Dec 14 '10 at 6:49
