I have a blog, which I did have available at blog.example.com. I have recently moved it to be a subdirectory of my main site www.example.com/blog. I am having some trouble with redirecting old links from the subdomain across the the new main site subdirectory, and I really need some help to get it working right. can someone help me craft a .htaccess file to handle the redirects?
Try this:
RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://sub.domain.com [R,L]

You can also do a simple php redirect, just throw this into the blog.mysite.com directory as index.php:

header( 'Location: http://www.mysite.com/blog/' ) ;

that will redirect people visiting blog.scramblejamble.com directly, but will do nothing to redirect old links.
here's my best crack at what you need to put in .htaccess:

Why use mod_rewrite if you don't have to? Use mod_alias's Redirect directive.
