Ok so I have a website already up .. but I remade it in iweb with my .mac/me account, so now I want people to type oldurl.com in a it will automatically go to newurl.com. How would I go about doing that.. also I dont want the old page to be deleted. Like it is a site that allows u to answer questions and I dont want the redirection to cancel that site database or somthing.

So tell me what info u need to answer this question... thanks

  1. Use a Meta tag for this.

    In the <HEAD> section of your html, include a tag like this

    "meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=http://www.WebSiteAddress...

    This tag has tww parts.

    1 - http-equive="refresh"  

    2 - Content="2;url=http://www.websiteaddress...  

    1 -- Tells the browser you want it to refresh

    2 -- Tells it how long to wait and where to go.

    Be sure you change the url section to be the new location you want people dropped off at.
