Rewrite name.domain.tld to domain.tld/foo/bar-name

[Matt .]

I'm actually kinda stuck here with the following:

I redirect as I said:

name.domain.tld -> domain.tld/foo/bar-name

this works OK, but as I can access domain.tld/foo/bar/name also
normally it works with local javascript:

/js/libs/etc...

but when I access that page using my rewrite it cannot find the root
ofcourse for that javascript folder and I cannot place it on a static
server, that is a big issue.

so: username.domain.tld/js is not found and my script falls back to /js....


can I do something on apache about this or do I need to handle it on
varnish as that actually does the rewrite
