Redirect Rule from WWW to Unique URL

I am unable to train our customers to stop using WWW in front of their url so I wanted to write a rule to redirect them, but I need some help with the syntax.     I'm trying to do the following....
application delivery
dev
devops
iRules

That does change things a bit.

Try this one:


if (http_host starts_with "www.") {
  redirect to (substr(http_host, 4) + http_uri)
}

See if that works a little better.
