How Can i Redirect index page.....

[luckysanj]

Dear Sir,

How can i redirect index page to wwx.site.com/me/index.php.

I have not fineshed front index page work so now i want to redirect this page to my personal information which is located on wwx.site.com/me.

And I inform to user that the index page is under maintenance so this page is redireting to personal information page like wwx.site.com/me.

This all is my own concept so plz clear me that. Is it right method to redirecting index page to sub directories index page.

Thank you.

usually, if you don't specify a file (i.e. you specify a directory) the web server loads the current index file (index.html, index.php, ...) or displays a 404 message.

of course you can use your server administration (or .htaccess) to redirect to any specific file you want.

You might use a header() redirect, although I second Dorm's suggestion of using an .htaccess file.

PHP: (index.php)

<?php
header("Location: me/index.php"); // or Location: http://fullurl.com/me/index.php
?>

ya but when we redirecting the main index page to like header("Location: me/index.php"); then we inform to user that that main page is redirecting due to under maintenance.

How can i do this?

in HTML you would prepare the appropriate message in the page and use

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="_time_in_seconds_;url=_destination_url_">

I can't understand what you have told.

[Dormilich]

use a HTML redirect (instead of PHP or Apache)
