Basically, what I'm looking for, is some sort of script that I can drop into
a folder on my server, and when someone visits that specific folder (I'm
going to remove all file's from the folder as I've moved the site), the
script detects the file is not there, and auto-redirects them to the new
location (kind of like a "clever" 404 page).
As I do not have direct access to my server's settings (such as editing 404
pages etc), I cannot do it the "normal" way.
Anyone have any ideas, suggestions, scripts, reference links?

If its an ASP site and the pages are .asp then use the Global.asa and
redirect in the Session_OnStart sub. That will kick off every time an ASP
page is requested with no session active.
You can also use a custom 404 error page to redirect (that's the way MS do
it I believe).

Chris, unfortunately, they're a mix of .jpg, .gif and .html pages.
I've read about the custom 404 pages, but from what I can gather, they need
to be set at server level, and can't be simply "dropped" into a folder.
Unfortunately I don't have access to my site's actual server settings.
Basically what I need is a re-direct script that will re-direct regardless
of whether file's are in the folder or not. using a default.asp or
index.html etc page is fine, however, that won't trap any of the other pages
accessed.....(hope I am making sense?)

I believe that the custom 404 and Global.asa methods are the only methods
available in IIS for non .asp (and .asp of course) pages and .asp pages
respectively.
If it's apache then you may be able to do it with the .htaccess file?
You may be able to ask your host to set it up for you - might charge you
though?

How about just putting in new versions of the old pages? Each new version,
just redirects to your new site.
Obviously, that wouldn't work for images, but it would catch most of the
users.

How about you change the DNS entries for that host header to point to an web
server that will (OK, you'd have to find an ASP host that's willing to
provide the redirection or a free host on apache etc.)?
This is of course presuming you have access to your domains DNS entries /
nameserver.

If it's an ASP site then do what Chris recommended.
Otherwise, put this script in each html page on the site:
<script Language="JavaScript">
window.navigate("http://www.mynewsite.com");

Any old page accesses via search engines will direct the browser to the new

Because the o/p has no control over the server, so an end user requesting http://server/image1.jpg will get an error.
Although....the images could also be replaced with an image containing the

news:%2****************@TK2MSFTNGP11.phx.gbl... I believe that the custom 404 and Global.asa methods are the only
methods available in IIS for non .asp (and .asp of course) pages and .asp pages
respectively.
If it's apache then you may be able to do it with the .htaccess file?
You may be able to ask your host to set it up for you - might charge you
though?

Chris, unfortunately, they're a mix of .jpg, .gif and .html pages.
I've read about the custom 404 pages, but from what I can gather, they need to be set at server level, and can't be simply "dropped" into a folder.
Unfortunately I don't have access to my site's actual server settings.
Basically what I need is a re-direct script that will re-direct
regardless of whether file's are in the folder or not. using a default.asp or
index.html etc page is fine, however, that won't trap any of the other
pages accessed.....(hope I am making sense?)

redirect in the Session_OnStart sub. That will kick off every time an ASP page is requested with no session active.
You can also use a custom 404 error page to redirect (that's the way
MS do it I believe).

Cheers for the suggestion Tom. That seems like my best option at the moment.
