Hi,
Is there any code or something that automatically redirects visitors to a http address when they visit the homepage?

Thanx

You can put a re-direct in your META tag of the homepage

Code:

<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0;url=http://whatever.com">

You can change the time before re-directing, by changing the number before the semicolon.

For example if you wanted to wait 5 secs before re-directing, the code would look like this.

Code:

<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="5;url=http://whatever.com">

thanx...is there any other way? bc the page is loading and then redirecting (I put time 0) is there a faster way? or a way that directly (withought opening the page) it redirects?

Thanx again

Many times you can go into your domain name host and they have re-direct options.

Who hosts your domain name? (for example, godaddy, dreamhost, etc..)

Or you could just change the page you want re-directed from to a blank page with that in the meta tag so there's nothing to load.

The quickest way is to use javascript.

Code:

<script language="JavaScript1.4" type="text/javascript">
window.location = "http://www.google.com";
</script>

If you have PHP, use header()

Code:

<?php
header( "Location: http://www.google.com/" );
?>
