Assuming foo.com is running apache and answering HTTP requests, Apache can
provide the rewriting with mucking up your pages. Use something like the
following in httpd.conf (I stick this within a <VirtualHost> block):
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.foo.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^80$
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.foo.com:%{SERVER_PORT}/$1 [L,R]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.foo.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.foo.com/$1 [L,R]
In my case, foo.com and www.foo.com resolve to the same IP. These rules
rewrite everything that isn't already http://www.foo.com, very handy when
your webserver has a dozen different names, keeps the logs clean.
One could probably do that all in one set of conditions and rewrite rule,
that is left as an exercise for the reader. :)
