Forwarding to another page/website. How?
Simple methods:
The PHP method forwards the request at the side of the server
and is fairly seamless to the viewer. Put this in a file and call it
<i>index.php</i> then upload to www.domain.com/folder/:
Code:<?php header("Location:http://www.domain.com/newfolder/"); ?>
The same effect can also be acheived by using a html meta refresh
which loads the page in the browser then refreshes it and
forwards it to the new location after a specified amount of
time. In this case we'll set it at zero seconds so the user does not
get a large delay. Put this in a file called index.html and upload
to www.domain.com/folder/:
Code:<html> <head> <title>redirecting...</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=http://www.domain.com/new-folder/"> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> </body> </html>
In the above examples replace domain.com with the domain in
question and you can alter the URL's to suit your needs.Last edited by denis; 09-08-2004 at 03:18 PM.

You can use htaccess to do the same thing. I think cPanel uses htaccess to setup redirects.
