man_web,

Welcome to WebmasterWorld [webmasterworld.com]!

You can use Apache mod_rewrite, and add a RewriteCond to your RewriteRules, specifying that only .html files are to be redirected:

RewriteCond {REQUEST_URI} \.html$

- or alternately, specifying that .pdf files are *not* to be redirected:

RewriteCond {REQUEST_URI} !\.pdf$

Thanks for your quick response jim,

It is working fine. Now I want to redirect my files from maindomain.com/products/product1/ directory to subdomain.com/products/sample1/ directory.

Also the main domain /product1/ to subdomain for *.html files only and not *.pdf.

I am waiting for your reply.

Man,

We will be happy to help you debug your code if you wish to post it, but as our charter [webmasterworld.com] says, our purpose is to help you learn to write your own code, and not to write your code for you.

The reference I posted above, the Apache mod_rewrite documentation [httpd.apache.org], and the Apache URL Rewriting Guide [httpd.apache.org] are good places to learn how to do what you need to do.

Also, a WebmasterWorld site search [google.com] for related terms will turn up many threads on this subject.
