Tried both the redirect you suggest and a rewrite and both cause a loop... but maybe if i have the admin rename the directory index and try redirecting to that... but then i dont think we'll be able to recover the
PR that is currently assigned to the index.php page.
No one else care to contribute their thoughts on how to properly deal with this issue?
... or maybe its not really an issue at all.
... perhaps there is no potential "duplicate content" issue under these circumstances and maybe the "splitting of
PR" is not what it appears to be.
