HTML - Redirect To Maintenance Page?
Hello all i've been doing some research on my own and am simply trying to redirect my site "ndcubed.com" to "ndcubed.com/Construction/Constuction.html" when my site is undergoing maintenance.
I've managed to read up on some tutorials and have found that this is apparently supposed to work: In the .htaccess file Code: Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/Construction/Construction.html$
RewriteRule $ /Construction/Construction.html [R=302,L]
This works like a charm and redirects all my pages to Construction.html however if you try going to my site the redirected URL is simply a blank page. However when the code in the .htaccess file is removed it isn't blank and displays normally. What could be going wrong, why would a redirect cause this page to not load correctly? Nothing is loaded except plain text, even the page background isn't displayed. Thank you for your help, I feel like i'm so close to getting this solved. Construction.html source: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

I am a novice at this so I haven't a clue how to charge for this? I realize that I cannot charge anywhere near what a pro would charge so that is not a problem at all for me, I have to start somewhere, I have designed a few sites before but that was simply editing templates and I had to do some of the work done by paying pro's to do it via Rentacoder. Now, that I have learned XHTML and CSS I want to do everything myself and will only pay someone to help if there's no way I can do it myself so can you guys help me out by suggesting how much I should charge for this my first job doing maintenance?

Hi all I am trying to set up a custom 404 page for when a user visits a broken/error page. I have read several other pages telling me how to do it, and they all pretty much the same thing, however it isnt working. Keep getting this on the page when i enter a broken link: Not Found The requested URL /clients/index.htm was not found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. I have set up a ht.access text document with the following code: ErrorDocument 404 error-page.html An error-page.html page has also been created. Now, am i even naming ht.access file right? Do i need any other code in the error-page.html to make it work? im going round in circles, getting nowhere, i hope someone can help!! I know how to do a basic redirect, but this is a bit more tricky. We use a CMS system to do most of our Web site but that limits me to do any html in the "head" since the programmers "locked us out." I'd like to put an html file on the root of the site to do a redirect to correct a link problem. We sent out an email with the wrong link - problem is, the link goes to a dynamic page. I want to REDIRECT that page to a new static page. This has to be possible....isn't it?

Hey everyone, This is my first post here, and I was hoping you guys could help me with a problem I am having. I own a race photography company and I am trying to find a way to create a form that athletes can fill out and it will take them to their images. I have keyworded all the images on my smugmug site with a race id followed by a number, such as "gunstock 6" So if they visit http://blahblahblah.smugmug.com/keyword/gunstock 6 it will bring up all the images of them from that race (every image keyworded with gunstock 6) However..... what I want to do is make that into a form which will take them to that specific page. I am a newbie when it comes to designing forms and webpages, and after searching around, it seemed the form get command sort of achieves what I want, in that it takes the form input and places it in the url. However... it also places the usual query text such as the question mark, =, and all that good stuff. So when I enter the race id and number on my form, it will instead take me to the url .../keyword/?=gunstock&=6, which instead of being a defined page with all of the images keyworded gunstock 6, it will just bring me to the keyword search page of smugmug. Is there any way to design a form that redirects simply to the .../keyword/raceid # url format? Thanks a million! Hello, I'm a windows app programmer, but don't know too much about HTML. I use Frontpage to maintain my web site. I need to check the referring page, and if it equals what I want, then I need to redirect to another page. OK, to explain further, I've had a web site for years. Lets call it www.p.com. Yesterday, I registered two new domain names, we'll call them www.a.com and www.b.com. I had my web host simply make them pointers directly to www.p.com. So, when users type in www.a.com or www.b.com, they are automatically taken to www.p.com. This is OK...but, it is causing some issues. What I'd like to do is, when the page (www.p.com) is loaded, I want the page to check the page the user came from, such as www.a.com. If it was www.a.com or www.b.com, then I want to re-load www.p.com, so that the page is refreshed so that it actually was www.p.com and not a re-direct from www.a.com. Can I do this? and how can this be done? Many thanks in advance! domls I have a page with a black background, and a script so that when a link is clicked the page fades out and then redirects to the link location. Since the background is black, the page fades to black before redirecting. How can I have it fade to white and then redirect? Is there any HTML code to redirect mistyped urls?

I have a link going direct to pdf documents on one site eg www.one.com/blah.pdf. The pdf's are moving to a new web site www.two.com/blah.pdf. How do I redirect people that link direct to the old pdf to the new one. These pdfs are coming up very high in Google. I was hoping if I changed them to redirects Google would follow. Also for those that have a link in their web site to these pdfs it will be broken when I move them to the new url. |
