Greetings! First time here!
I signed up for the 1and1 three-year free hosting service sometime ago, and have used the http://s92795644.onlinehome.us domain name that came with it. I bought a new domain name now through 1and1, but with the name servers managed at Sitelutions.
I would like the visitors to my http://s92795644.onlinehome.us domain to be forwarded to my new domain, but 1and1 manages the DNS for the onlinehome.us subdomain. I tried using 1and1's forwarding service to forward the visitors to http://www.mrkenneth.com, but the domain name in the address bar remains http://s92795644.onlinehome.us.
Is it possible to put a script in the webpage that refreshes the URL in the address bar so that it reflects the correct URL?
Currently, I am just running a META refresh, and opening a new browser window. One problem with the current solution is that the pop-ups may be blocked. Another problem is that I cannot seem to get the browser to open a new window, and close the previous window. I am using the following code:
Code:
<body onLoad="new_window=window.open('http://www.mrkenneth.com');setTimeout('window.close()',1000)">
The window.close button does not work with the pop-up either. Have I made some obvious error?
By the way, does anybody know how Google will react to 1and1's forwarding service? Does 1and1 use send a 301 page?
Thanks for reading this long post! |
