Redirection VIA Perl

mtorbin · Dec 1, 2003

Hey all,

As you can probably tell, I've had a full day of development (thus all the questions...thanks for your help!)

I have a script I'm working on and I can't seem to find the answer anywhere. Here's a quick run down:

if (THIS CASE EXISTS) {

[SOMEHOW REDIRECT THE BROWSER TO 123.45.6.789]

}

else {
[DO SOME ALERT BOX THING]
}

It's that first half that I'm having the most trouble with. I can't seem to figure out (or find for that matter) what the exact directive is to accomplish this. Any suggestions?

[SOMEHOW REDIRECT THE BROWSER TO 123.45.6.789]

print "Content-Type text/html\n\n";
print "<html><head><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0; URL=http://123.45.6.255\"></head><body>You're being redirected in 0 seconds</body></html>";

Should do it

BTW 123.45.6.789 is going to be fun to redirect to

If you're using CGI.pm let us know, and it can be rewrittent o look a lot sweeter

LOL... Thanks. Yeah, that fake IP I just grabbed and made up. I know it has some inaccuracies to it.
