Forward slash problem in url

forward slash redirect problem

[getoffmyisland]

how do you redirect a url like this:

http://www.example.com//about.html

to this:

http://www.example.com/about.html ?

Neither of the URLs you provide are valid URLs.

Should I assume that the question could be stated "how can I remove redundant forward slashes in URLs, redirecting back with a corrected version"?

For example

http://www.example.com//about.html

should be redirected to

http://www.example.com/about.html

If this is what you're asking, check out this thread here, which I found through google.
