Problem
How do I forward one webpage to another?

Solution
All you need to do is upload the forwarder page to your site. When anyone views this page they will be taken to the new webpage. There is 2 ways that I will show you to do this.



1. Frame Forwarding - Keeps first the URL in the address bar
---------------------------------------
CHANGE THE FOLLOWING:
Site Title - make this your page name
http://www.yourdomain.com - make this the URL of the page you want to forward to
---------------------------------------
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Site Title</TITLE></HEAD>
<FRAMESET ROWS="100%,*" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" framecolor="#000000">
<FRAME SRC="http://www.yourdomain.com" NAME = 'BODY'>
</FRAMESET>
<NOFRAMES>
<body text="black" bgcolor="#ffffff" link="#000000" vlink="#000000" alink="#FF0000">
<center>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<h1>You are trying to access a website which uses frames, but your browser does not support them.</h1>
<h2>Please click <a href = "http://www.yourdomain.com">here</a> to be taken to the Web Site.</h2>
</body>
</noframes>
</html>
---------------------------------------



2. Direct Forwarding - Puts the new URL in the address bar
Code:
---------------------------------------
CHANGE THE FOLLOWING:
http://www.yourdomain.com - make this the URL of the page you want to forward to
---------------------------------------
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Loading - Please Wait...</TITLE>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="5; URL=http://www.yourdomain.com">
</HEAD>
<body text="black" bgcolor="#ffffff" link="#000000" vlink="#000000" alink="#FF0000">
<center>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<h1>Please wait...you are being redirected to the website.</h1>
<br>
<h2>Please click <a href="http://www.yourdomain.com">here</a> if the page does not load within 5 seconds.</h2>
</body>
</html>
