rewrite help again please :)

[Claude Bing]

Firefox says: REDIRECT LOOP  Firefox has detected that the server is
redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

lol.

It's only when I use www.wfto.cc, and not wfto.cc.

Figured it out while writing this e-mail.  Make sure that when you use those
rewrite rules that you actually have a server named www.whatever.com, or it
will end up in a redirect loop.

Thanks again,

Claude
