Need Help...

I recently just purchased another domain in addition to my original one. However, I have 1 IP address on my server and need to know how to redirect based on the site keyed in the address bar.

For example: If I type in 'site_1.com' I want it to go to 'site_1.com/site_1'

OR

'site_2.com >>> site_2.com/site_2'

I would also prefer to do this without JS. Help?

You can use redirection for t, for example with html:

Code:

<meta content='1; ur=site_1/' http-equiv='refresh'>

something like that, or you can use php;

Code:

<?php
header("Location: http://site_1.com/site_1/");
?>

and you can put one of these in the index.html or index.php (dephends on which you use).

But you should also be able to just change the root directory for the site.

Anyways, good luck ^^ Hope this helped

Thanks so much! The problem is I have 2 sites and I need it to go to 2 directories depending on what URL they typed in. I have seen this done with Javascript but so far it has not worked for me. Thanks though!

Any more suggestions?

Uhh...Yeah. Use what Skyfe had suggested...

You put the meta data into an HTML file at site_1's index.html and site_2's index.html and they will forward your visitor to the appropriate destination.

How about .htaccess ?
Redirect 301 /old.html http://yoursite.com/new.html
