---- How to redirect from non-html to .html extension

Hi,
Due to some reason google has indexed two versions of few links from my website. For example

1. http://www.domain.com/some-content.html
2. http://www.domain.com/some-content


but, both the links point to same content and as per my script both the links are also valid. So, now I am trying to redirect the non-html version of my urls to their respective .html version of urls to avoid duplicate content ( urls) as per google webmaster tool.

I think it can be done by .htaccess but I don't have much idea on .htaccess rules, so not able to get it done.


somehow I wrote one code which is doing exactly the opposite of my requirement.. :(


RewriteRule ^(.*).html$ http://www.my-domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]


Could anyone please let me know what to write in .htaccess file to get it fixed ?

Thank you
batu
