301 redirects, still a problem for me.. help please - GoFuckYourself.com

that's something i still dont fully understand how it works, what all those symbols mean etc.
I tried to figure it out with my own htaccess examples which all work perfect on the sites they are on, but somehow it doesnt work.

Wordpress site, i want:

www.mydomain.com/page/1/
www.mydomain.com/page/2/
www.mydomain.com/page/3/ etc... to redirect to:

www.mydomain.com/posts/page/1/
www.mydomain.com/posts/page/2/
www.mydomain.com/posts/page/3/ etc.

How?

figured it out, page 1 conflicted with WP page 1 default redirect. It's all good now.

One strange thing though.
I used this code:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^page/1/(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/posts/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^page/(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/posts/page/$1 [R=301,L]

So the /page/1/ goes to /posts/
and the rest like this:
/page/2/ to /posts/page/2/
/page/3/ to /posts/page/3/

Works in IE, but in firefox /page/1/ goes to /posts/1/
Weird. How come?
