    - In your web root folder create a file name is index.html.
    - Edit index.html and copy the above code in there.
    - Your site will redirect to the URL mentioned in the redirect code.

    I really don't understand "redirect to the same URL":rolleyes:
    If same url, it may means that redirect www.abc.com to the same www.abc.com.
    If you are moving/forwarding/redirecting from an domain to another new domain, you can use .htaccess with 301 redirect directives (if allowed by the host) or just do as joomclan's instruction.
    if you mean that you are redirect a part of url after a domain name to the same url part of another domain name, you should need a php file in your root of the Joomla site to handle redirect under some conditions matching to the new url style.
