how do u make the index page point to a certain folder to open as home page?

Hi all

i have a site and what to make the index page point to file to open in another file

so the first index page says open www.nameosite.com/folder1/index

hope this makes sense

 

Use a HTACCESS redirect.

 

put this in the index

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=www.nameosite.com/folder1/index">

Code (markup):

index with a .php or .html

 

Htaccess is the best, but a simple php redirect is the easiest (well, the meta refresh is easier but not as good...) if you can use php (if you can't check this page out ...http://www.somacon.com/p145.php)

Put this at the top of index.php...
<?php
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: http://www.somacon.com/");
exit();
?>

 

Yes, htAccess is the best but if you can't edit this file, read this:
How to redirect visitors to your new site?

 

JavaScript also works fine for that purpose. Take a look at window.open(url) function.

 

good info

thank u
