Hi guys,

Without actually putting a refresh/redirect in the Head of an actual html page, I would like this address: www.radionorthwickpark.org/forums to redirect to another URL. Is there a way I can actually put a redirect page in that directory on my server i.e. so forums/index.htm goes to a specified URL??

Thanks!

Here we go:

http://www.isitebuild.com/301-redirect.htm

That is presuming you're running an Apache server.

[Article regarding .htaccess]

That is presuming you're running an Apache server.Not really. Other server software uses .htaccess files and the directives that Apache uses, though some (like Zeus) are much less capable.

Be aware that even if your host uses Apache (or other supporting software), you may not be able to use the necessary directives; the use of .htaccess files can be restricted by the server administrator.
