browser independant redirect base on just the domain

[gameon]

Hi, is it pos to do a browser independant redirect base on just the domain - not the whole url.

EG:

if the domain is

http://www.microsoft.com

or

http://microsoft.com

or

http://microsoft.co.uk

go to 'x'

How browser independant?

You need it to work for which browsers?

 

[gameon]

ie and ns7, mos4, ns4 ideally...

 

[theboyhope]

Got any code at the moment?

 

[gameon]

Currently -

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
fp=0;
if (navigator.appName.indexOf(&quot;Netscape&quot > -1){
fp=0
}
if (navigator.appName.indexOf(&quot;Microsoft&quot > -1){
fp=1;
}
if (fp == 1) {
<!---if IE--->
[IE STYLE REDIRECT]
}
else{
document.write('')
[OTHER STYLE REDIRECT]
}
</script>

 

[gameon]

without that docwrite...

At the start, you said you wanted to redirect depending on the domain, but your code is using the browser name.

Which is it?

 

[gameon]

whoops - old bit of code - I need to use the domain - how do you do that---

 

[theboyhope]

You'll need to be a bit clearer, mate. You want to test on the referring domain, the current URL, or what?

 

[gameon]

the current url

I usually use cf to do a redirect based on the domain.

I suppose i want to set a var as the domain, then do a swich with some actions based on that var...

 

[theboyhope]

If you get the current URL like this;

current_url = document.location.href;

... and test like this:

if( current_url.indexOf( "your_test" ) != -1 )

.. and so on.

Or, like you said, switch-case.

HTH.

 

[gameon]

so will this working in any browser, I thought there was a different location syntax for diff browsers...

current_url = document.location.href;

switch (current_url) {
case 'United States':
window.location='my url';
break;
default:
window.location='my url';
}

 

[gameon]

case whould be the url, not 'united states'

 

[theboyhope]

I think I finally see what it is that you want: a different redirect depending on whether it's &quot;.com&quot;, &quot;.co.uk&quot;, &quot;.net&quot;, or dot whatever.

Correct?

If so, why are you using Javascript to do it?

Search the web, fella. I'm not a reference.

 

[gameon]

its depends on the whole domain. In this particular instance - I cannot use iis, php or coldfusion. There are 5 domains parked - and I need to redirect to a different page - including the same page, but change the domain.

eg: they type in bob.com > bob.com

they type in bill.com > the same page as bob.com

they type in milly.com > redirect to bob.com (even though its parked and could work as milly.com).

Why not just put something like this on each page?

<script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;>

document.location.replace( &quot;[URL unfurl="true"]www.bob.com&quot;[/URL] );

</script>
