need help with redirect code

Wayne Dohrmann · 09-11-2006, 11:21 AM

I am trying to write a redirect code into a web page and have found some code, but have not found anything that will work. Maybe I am trying to do something that cannot be done. I am trying to redirect traffic to a subdomain from another subdomain. example: I am trying to direct traffic from a doman that looks like this xxxxx.xxxx.com to a site that looks like this www.xxxx.com/mine Obviously the mine is my page. I have read that the redirects will work only to the index pages. I'm sure someone will know the answer. Thanks in advance

redirects will work on any page.

Really easy redirect:

in the body tag (<body>) put this: onLoad="location.href='desiredurl'"
and leave this page blank. Once it loads, it will redirect to the specified page.

There are a bunch of different redirect scripts out there. Just google for them and you'll be able to find a ton. The one I just mentioned will work and is easy.

Gamerman0203--- can you give me an example of how that would look. I thought I followed your directions exactly, but it did not work. When you say inside the <body> are you saying in between the tags? and when you used the apos( abr) sign did you mean to use the quotes?

Like this:

HTML Code:

<body onLoad="location.href='url'">

Thank you. It finally works after about 5 hours of trying to figure out the code. Found one little stupid mistake that I kept overlooking.
