just need to redirect a few pages

i don't need a rule.. just a 1 to 1 example

[nippi]

I have a client with an 8 page website, they have changed all their page names for some reason, with no real pattern.

I am thinking ot do a url1 to url2 rule for each old url, so inbound links to old urls still go somewhere.

I can't find how to do this - so much about how to do it in apache mod rewrite...

can anyone help?

Its on IIs / 6

Just put this code on the (old) page you want to redirect:

Classic ASP

<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
Response.Status="301 Moved Permanently"
Response.AddHeader "Location","http://www.example.com/newpage/"
%>

ASP .NET

<script runat="server">
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently";
Response.AddHeader("Location","http://www.example.com/newpage/");
}
</script>

problem.

they are .html pages

[marcel]

Do the old URLs also have the .html extension? or are they the default document within a directory?

ie. are the URLs example.com/category.html or example.com/category/

If the former you will need to configure IIS to handle the .html extension via the asp.dll or invest in ISAPI_Rewrite

If the latter, you can just put another default document in that folder (default.asp) and add the code.

If the old files are HTML and the new are ASP can you use a META REFRESH in the old ones?

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://www.example.com">
