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"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- body { background-image: url(Images/lightGrayBack.png); background-repeat: repeat; } --> </style></head> <body> Test </body> </html> How can I set up a page that automaticaly redirects my visitors to a new page? 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!! 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! I know how to have my page redirect to a different page. the problem i have is that I want somebody to go to my page, click on a link, which will bring them to a new page, have the new page open up an instant mesanger window to my screen name, and then redirect back to my main page. I have all of the code to open up the IM window, but I do not know how to get the browser to redirect after that has happened. as of now, this is my page i want to have the code to redirect to my main page on. Code: <html> <head> <title>WeirdClayJisKOOL//AIM-redirect</title> <style type="text/css">.sneaky { display: none; visibility: hidden; }</style> <script language="javascript"> function reDirect() { document.aim.submit() } </script> </head> <body onLoad="reDirect()"> <B>Generating AIM..</B> <a href=http://www.mymainpage.com><h1>Return to Mymainpage</h1></a> <form method="post" action="aim:goim?screenname=WeirdClayJisKOOL&message=Hey!" name="aim"> <span class="sneaky"><input type="submit" value="AIM"></span> </form> </body> </html> i'm not sure if this post belongs in this section because i don't know if i would use html, or javascript or what. if you are un-clear about what i want let me know and i will be glad to attemp to clearify. thank you! 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? I want anyone clicking on the link below: http://www.macpa.org/Public/Catalog/...rseID=09191010 to be redirected to this page: http://www.macpa.org/Content/25187.aspx HELP! 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? 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 Hi, I've searched for sometime on this issue but no luck. I've two forms on my html page (say form1 and form2). Both the forms have one text area each (say textarea1 and textarea2). form1 also has a button on clicking which the contents of textarea2 are copied into textarea1. Everything seems so smooth till here. But the real hurdle starts here. Actually, I have an xml in textarea2. This xml has few elements with special characters like "&" and "<" Now when the button on the form1 is clicked the contents are copied into textarea1 and this is passed as a parameter to the servlet which tries to display it in a browser. But the textarea1 is converting all & and < to & and < and thus making it an invalid xml. I would like the special characters to stay the same as they are in textarea2. Any workaround for this? Option2: I even would like to know if there's a way to submit form2 when a button in form1 is clicked. Is it possible? Any help is really appreciated. Thanks. So this has been driving me crazy....I can't seem to figure out what is wrong with this HTML code. The W3 validator seems to think that I don't have a <head> element but it's there, so I don't get it. See here for the W3 report or view the original page here (note: this page has a meta and JavaScript redirect after 20 seconds). I should also note that this is not a dynamically generated page, it is "raw" HTML, if you want to call it that. Any help would be appreciated, thanks! -- Dan P.S. Not anything high on the priority list, as the page does seem to work as intended in all tested browsers (IE7/8, FF3, Opera 9, and Safari 3), it's just more of a curiosity and trying to do better next time thing. Hey Guys, im new to this forum and i am in desperate need of help!! I have a site and when everypage loads it has a internet explorer error load.

Matt Hi all, I ran a link check for my site using software. and i got the errors as INVALID CHARACTER details are as below. Page - Category - 108 - Invalid character Date - 11/16/08 Severity - 5 Message - The character " ( 0x22 ) is not a valid ASCII character can anyone pls let me know what is this error and how could it be resolve ?? thanks a lot Hi, I have a website who can enter html code for product descriptions with my text editor. My problem is when user entered invalid html code, (not closed tables or divs etc) my layout distorted. I will try to change text editor but the other problem is i have lots of records, so i can't repeair invalid htmls on my database. So how can i isolate user html code from to my html? I don't want to use iframe. Any ideas? Thank you. This might sound pretty lame and stupid for you guys, but I'm a total beginner here and have a deadline that's coming in fast. There's no time for tutorials and so on so here goes: I've implemented a simple search field in my companies website with this: Code: <form name="form" action="http://www.idlena.lt/?section=naujienos&sub=naujienos4&lang=lt" method="get"> <input type="text" name="section=naujienos&sub=naujienos4&lang=lt&q" </> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Rasti" /> </form> Quite short and simple. Right? Wrong... the second link in the code should redirect the inputted text (in the search field) to the actual php script that handles the search with my database. The problem is - that link should redirect to Code: http://www.idlena.lt/?section=naujienos&sub=naujienos4&lang=lt&q=&Submit=Rasti Instead it redirects me in browser to Code: http://www.idlena.lt/?section%3Dnaujienos%26sub%3Dnaujienos4%26lang%3Dlt%26q=&Submit=Rasti and it breakes the url this way. I've read that sometimes ampersand has to be written with & in the code, I've done that. Doesn't make a difference. And what is even more strange - why doesn't the equal (=) sign show up as it should? This is just too frustrating. As a total beginner I understand that the explanation or the fix could be very simple but I just can't figure this out. Maybe there's an error in my code? Maybe I'm typing the url wrong? The main question remains - why don't ampersands and "=" signs show up as they should? Tried using the & , &amp; , %26 in the code but nothing helped. Firefox 3.0.5 and IE 8 show up a broken link with "&" shown as "%26" and "=" with "%3D". I'm using Eclipse as my IDE, and getting a warning from it's XHTML validator saying: Invalid location of tag (br). The code is as follows: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <title>Animation Master</title> </head> <body style="font-family: sans-serif"> <h1>Testing</h1> <br /> <br /> <br /> <p>Blah blah</p> </body> </html> It happens at each <br /> tag, so I'm getting the warning three times. Why is this? |
