What script are you using?

htaccess and a php file would seem the obvious way to go, but altering your script would maybe better.

eg.

if (!$result) 
	{
	$today = date("m/d/Y");
	header("Location: /$today");
	}

Pm me the file that displays pages, or post some of it here.

There will be a query to grab the page data from the database, if that's empty then re-direct.

it doesnt has any data, its just a script index.php which is showing the page?

i want to completly delete the whole site, all files, and only put a htacces file, can u do it?

i got this:


You can redirect with .htaccess using ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

And then inside 404.php file get the date and redirect again to mydomain.com/10/29/2012.

Example code:
<?php
$curDate = date("m/d/Y");
$url="http://www.mydomain.com/".$curDate;
header('Location:'.$url);
?>


but its redirecting to : mydomain.com/10/29/2012 and i want him to redirect to mydomain.com/10/29/2012.html, how to do it?

.html at the end how?
