Javascript Redirect

[dsook]

I need to use Javascript to redirect and pass the incoming URL parameters to the new website.

For example, a call to:
[mywebsite...] needs to transfer to:

[newwebsite...]

*****************************

I have tried using
<script language="javascript"><!--
location.replace("http://newwebsite/startpage.php)
</script>

This transfers control to the desired webpage, but the parameters are not passed.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

You need to retrieve the parameters before being able to use them. Here's a general function that I use for doing just that.

function getURLParam(strParamName){
var strReturn = "";
var strHref = window.location.href;
if ( strHref.indexOf("?") > -1 ){
var strQueryString = strHref.substr(strHref.indexOf("?"));
var aQueryString = strQueryString.split("&");
for ( var iParam = 0; iParam < aQueryString.length; iParam++ ){
if (aQueryString[iParam].indexOf(strParamName + "=") > -1 ){
var aParam = aQueryString[iParam].split("=");
strReturn = aParam[1];
break;
}
}
}
return strReturn;
}

Then you can setup your redirect like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
window.location.href='http://newwebsite/startpage.php?parm1='+getURLParam('parm1')+'&parm2='+getURLParam('parm2')+'&parm3='+getURLParam('parm3');
</script>

Hope that helps and you get it figured out.
