Wildcard Redirect For Sub Directory

[goldleviathan]

I would like to redirect individual pages from my old site (located in old sub directory on same domain) to one new main page (located in different sub directory on same domain).

For example:

[example...] needs to redirect to http://www.example.com/new/

What would be the easiest .htaccess script for this?

[goldleviathan]

I thought maybe I should clarify a bit more. I want all pages from old site that ended with .jsp to permanently redirect to the main index page of my new site. (no longer using jsp).

Ok, let me ask this a different way. I am currently using this rule:

Redirect 301 /html/oldsite1/ [domain.com...]
Redirect 301 /html/oldsite2/ [domain.com...]

RedirectMatch (.*)\.jsp$ [domain.com...]

How can I do this without the "index.php" showing up in the url?

(I want to redirect all jsp files to the new index.php without the index.php in the url)

I just want it to forward all oldsite/*.jsp requests to the new site directory.

Why don't you leave it out? Don't you have
"DirectoryIndex index.php" specified for /newsite/?

If I leave it out, it attempts to go to the same whatever.jsp file at the new site and I get a 404 error.

Ok, this seems to be working:

DirectoryIndex index.php
Redirect 301 /html/oldsite1/ [domain.com...]
Redirect 301 /html/oldsite2/ [domain.com...]
RedirectMatch (.*)\.jsp$ [domain.com...]
