[Help].htaccess help needed

[x24324gv89]

Hello,
I am new here and completely new to php coding and .htaccess.I readed on net that if you use mod_rewrite func you can redirect any file to another for ex (index.php redirect to index2.php)

So,i wanted to try it but it does not redirect to index2.php from index.php

.htaccess file

RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ index2.php [L,NC]

Note:All 3 files (.htaccess,index.php,index2.php are in a same folder called gd...

Thanks!

Try this:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RedirectMatch "\.php$" http://hostname/index.php

If the .htaccess is in /gd, use

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /gd/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ index2.php [L,NC]

RewriteBase /gd/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ index2.php [L,NC]
