Re-direct all requests to the same page

Hi group

I'm running Apache 1.3 as part of an Oracle solution. For a short
while (one day), I want all requests to pages in a site to go to a
specific html page in this site. So far I have the following in
http.conf:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule !^/holdingpage.html$ /holdingpage.html [L]

This is fine until I get into a specific Oracle directory. For
example,
http://servername.com/dat
will display
http://servername.com/holdingpage.html

However,
http://servername.com/data
displays
The page isn't redirecting properly (in Firefox).

Any suggestions for how I can handle this would be gratefully
received.

Many thanks

Hi again

I've managed to fix this now - there was an oracle module taking over
all calls to the data URL. Disabling this by commenting out
include conf/oracle_apache.conf
has done the trick.
