problems with Redirects

[Alan Eshelman <alan.eshelman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Okay let's say directory with its own subdirectories of pages has been 
removed from my site and any queries for that topic need to be directed 
to another web site and domain. I want to redirect not only requests 
for the main directory for that topic, but also any direct links that 
people might have saved as bookmarks. i.e. i need to redirect 
mysite.com/oldtopic/ and mysite.com/oldtopic/oldpage.html as well. I 
would -assume- you could put in:

URL Path: /oldtopic/ 		Destination URL: http://www.othersite.com/

This works, but -only- if the person hitting my web site goes exactly 
to http://www.mysite.com/oldtopic/

If they hit a bookmark and try to go to 
mysite.com/oldtopic/oldpage.html, the server tries to redirect them to 
http://www.othersite.com/oldpage.html, which is not what i want, they 
need to be directed to the root of othersite.com.

So is there some sort of wildcard I can use when defining these 
redirects? Something like:

URL Path: /oldtopic/*		Destination URL: http://www.othersite.com/

???
