I have a domain and I'm trying to set up a subdomain to point to a specific folder on my domain. So for example, using Cpanel, I've set up a subdomain called folder that redirects to http://mydomain.com/folder

However, if I type http://folder.domain.com, once I get redirected to http://domain.com/folder, the url in my broswer address bar changes to http://domain.com/folder.

I'm trying, without success to make sure that if I was to type http://folder.domain.com, I will get redirected to http://domain.com/folder, but in my address bar, the url would remain as http://folder.domain.com

Here's the steps which I've taken to redirect My Subdomain ? Am I forgetting to do something ?

1. Log into Cpanel and click on Subdomains
2. Add folder.mydomain.com
3. Select folder.mydomain.com and click on Setup Redirection
3. Type http://mydomain.com/folder and click on Save.

The redirection thing won't do what you're trying to do. What you need (I think, and I'm probably wrong) is something like mod_rewrite.

You shouldn't need redirection. Just create a subdomain and it should work like you want.

Thanks ! I got it working just how I wanted it when I just added the subdomain and left out the redirection !
