How To make an web redirection ?
Use the refresh attribute. Just put the following html page at the old location.
This sample waits 2s before to redirect.
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
<html>
<head>
<title>Redirection.html</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;URL=the new location">
</head>
<body>
<center>
<h1>This page has moved to <a href="New location">New location</a>
<p>If nothing happens within a few seconds, please click on the link.</p>
</center>
</body>
</html>
Other solution in php (this example is to force use of https):
<?php
if ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] != 443) {
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently"); //For webbots
header("Location: https://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
exit();
}
?>
Also possible with .htaccess file.
