Bouncing user to another webpage

[leeshanokb]

Hello all,

Is there a way to use Javascript to redirect the user to another webpage? I'm looking to have that done, but I want to be sure that the other page is valid (i.e. that it won't redirect if the other site is down)... I'm not even sure if Javascript is the right tool to use at all for it.

Thanks,
Bruce

No you cannot see if the page is down. You really need to use server side code and look at the return header for the page. PHP or ASP can do this.
