REDIRECT URL
Redirect URL Overview
The Redirect URL option allows you to change the file that
appears when a user enters a specific files web address.
Example:
There are a number of old URLs for your sites home page that
are no longer current, yet people still use them. You dont
really want people going to those old URLs because either an
outdated page will display or theyll get an error.
Set up redirection for these old URLs, so that when users enter
them into their web browsers, the file at your current URL
displays instead.
Note:
·
In order to use the Redirect URL option, the Microsoft
FrontPage Extensions
option must be disabled. If it is
enabled you must use your version of Microsoft
FrontPage to protect the directories. If the Microsoft
FrontPage Extensions option is enabled, you will not have
access to the Redirect URL option; instead you will see
the following message if you try to access it.
