Redirect
One of my clients has changed their domain name. I want to add an 'index'
page to their old site that will 'redirect' the user to the new site. I
remember doing this before but I've lost the 'code' to do it.
Do you have a sample 'page' that shows how to do the 'redirect'?
Thanks and Cheers,

Re: Redirect
In between the <HEAD> and </HEAD> lines, put something like:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="10; url=http://www.newsite.com/">
This will redirect the user to the url specified in 10 seconds.
In the body of the page, put something along the lines of:
The new address is:<BR>
<A HREF="http://www.newsite.com/">http://www.newsite.com/</A>
<BR><BR>
(Your browser should automatically take you there. If it doesn't, click on
the new address above.)

Re: Redirect
You need to place a meta refresh tag in the head of the index page:
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0;URL=http://www.server.com/newpage.html">
If you want to have a longer delay (to display a message or something) then
change content=0 to content=5 or something (in seconds).
