I've never done this before, but how do you create a redirection page?
Company has two domain names, and I want one that isn't used (no website, only emails) to redirect to the one that is.
Cheers

quick and dirty method below ...
<HTML>
<!--this is here to make the file greater than 512 bytes .****************************************
************************************************** ***********************************************
************************************************** ***********************************************
************************************************** ***********************************************
************************************************** ***********************************************
-->
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript1.1">
<!--
location.replace("http://www.somedomain/index.cfm");
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<NOSCRIPT>
<META http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; URL=http://www.somedomain.com/index.cfm">
</NOSCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
</BODY>

IE 5 will replace any server error messages with it's own default ones if the file is less than 512 bytes.
When we wrote this we called this page as an 'error page' within the netscape config.

if it would ignore the javascript and meta then yes, probably.
Can't see it realistically happening though - like I said it was quick & dirty.

Steve,
That was exactly what I was looking. Locally the code works a treat, I just need to get it up to the website and see what happens.
Thanks a lot!!
