Transfer PR with 301 Redirect

Transferring PR from an old page to a new page

[jorje29]

Just a small question about 301 redirect

URL of my web pages have a slash ( / ) at the end but I decided to remove it because it creates problems with google analytics.

I use this code inside my .htaccess file :

Code: RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [R=301,L]

My question : if an old page ( like www.mydomain.com/blabla/bla/ has PR 4, is it safe by using the code above that the old page will transfer PR to the new page ( like www.mydomain.com/blabla/bla )?

Any problem with that? is it safe with Google?

Thank you

Most people report that this works fine. In the past it took maybe 4 weeks to take effect in Google results - but of course, toolbar PR is only updated about 3-4 times a year.
