Auto-moving to another webpage

When the new website is up at BU, i'd like to get my users moved instantly to this one when they go to my old site. Can someone post me the code for this?

Re: Auto-moving to another webpage

this is JavaScript... log out and in the forums, or do a forum search, so as to have displayed that "redirecting... click here if you do not wish to wait" page, then hit stop, and look at the page's HTML source... :)

Re: Auto-moving to another webpage

Code:

<script language="JavaScript">

<!-- 

if( -1 == location.href.

           toLowerCase().

           indexOf('www.bots-united.com') )

{

  location.href = 'http://www.bots-united.com';

}

// -->

</script>

I figured this code works instantly for redirecting. It does not allow the users to read that they are redirecting. I also read somewhere in a book that you can do it with pure html though.

Anyway, i found this on the internet using mighty google ;) the login->view source thingy gave me to much crap :)

Re: Auto-moving to another webpage

If anyone cares,

Using ASP,
<%@ language="vbscript"%>
<%
Response.Redirect"'http://www.bots-united.com")
%>

Soon, I won't care either. I am going BACK to Unix/ Linux totally and leaving the
windows crap behind.

Re: Auto-moving to another webpage

Yes, the meta tag is clean, BUT be aware of WHERE the redirect is hapenning,
at the server - BEFORE the browser knows about it
or
At the browser (client).

At the browser has a number of problems, with caching, with not wanting to do the redirect, with 2rd party software like add removal software that doesn't allow redirects, and on and on and on....

Re: Auto-moving to another webpage

a php version:

PHP Code:


		
			
header("Location: http://www.php.net");
die();

but you can't write anything on the page (even a linebreak) or it'll give you a very nasty error.

Re: Auto-moving to another webpage

also, last i looked, you don't even technically need the die() there - just make sure the header() is before any output on the page (as headers are sent before content, and thus any content locks in the current headers)
