whit3fir3 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 In short rewrite rules can do most everything that redirect does. About the only time I use redirect instead of rewrite rules is if I wanted to send a 300 http header. Rewrite rules are used to make changes to URL with out the end user knowing about it. Rewrite rules are a bit more complex and people some times have a hard time writing them due to the fact that they use Regular Expressions.
