domain2.com forwards to domain1.com/subdirectory

[tomb]

Hi. I have 2 domains. domain2.com points to domain1.com

Does anyone know of a script that can check if domain2.com is typed in the address and if it is then forward to domain1.com/subdirectory

That would be terrific! Thanks.

I'm not completely sure what you mean, or if this is the right forum. But this code, will make someone who goes to http://www.domain2.com be taken to http://www.domain1.com/sub

You have you have this before any coding is output to the browser.

Code: Select all

<?php 
header("Location: http://www.domain1.com/subdirectory");
?>

Yeah I realised it was the wrong forum right after I posted. I was hoping the mods would move it for me.

That's not quite what I was after since you could only use this if you had an account on domain2.com. I need something in the header of domain2.com/index.php.
The code would look something like this:

if (location = domain2.com){
forward to domain1.com/sub
}

This would go in the header of domain1.com/index.php

I don't quite know what you mean. This is what I think:

The domain2.com is a referring domain name, that isnt set up with DNS information.

In this case, I think the code would be something like this...

if ($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] == "http://www.domain2.com") {
header("Location: http://www.domain1.com/sub");
}

Do you have control over index.php of domain2.com?

No because domain2.com points directly to domain1.com. There's no index.php in domain2.com so all code must be put in domain1.com/index.php.

This is an ASP version of what I'm after:

I edited my last post, that code should work. I didnt realise what you said at first.

Thanks Joel. I'll try it out tomorrow when my domain's up and running. Cheers.

Thanks. This is what I ended up using for anyone interested:

Code: Select all

<?php
if ($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] == "www.domain2.com" || $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] == "domain2.com") { 
   header("Location: http://www.domain2.com/sub"); 
}
?>
