Redirect Home Page

[Bruce A. Julseth]

I have a "new" homepage. How do I automatically direct clients to this new
home page, i.e. when clients enter "OldHomePage.htm", they will
automatically be directed to "NewHomePage.htm."

Thanks......

Bruce

copy the following into the head of your document.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://www.abc.com/">

the 0 is the time in seconds before the browser forwards the user

replace www.abc.com with the URL you want it to redirect to

You may also want to include a text link to the page in case your visitor's browser does not
support the 'refresh'.

You have a choice here:

1. Delete [OldHomePage.htm] (or rename it to something else) and rename
[NewHomePage.htm] to [OldHomePage.htm]

2. Edit [OldHomePage.htm] so it looks like the following...
(NOTE: I changed the greater-than and the less-than signs so the code
would not render as html in your reader)
--- code begin ---

[title]Redirect[/title]
[body]
[!-- This page redirects the visitor to whatever page I intend to be the
"home" page
at this particular time. --]
[script language="javascript"]
location.replace("http://yourwebsite/NewHomePage.html");
[/script]
[/body]
[/html>]
--- code end ---

I didn't want to do Option 1, but thanks for Option 2. That'll do the job...
