Sample Of A Forwarding Header

You can set up a special meta tag in the file header that will allow it to auto forward to another page.

This is useful if you have moved pages to a new location and yet there are still out there in cyberspace links to the old pages. Of course you still have to maintain the presence of the old pages at the old site. The forwarding page can be a small page consisting of the page illustrated below which you can highlight, copy and paste into a new document and then save it with the name of the page it is replacing and put it at your OLD site.

Remember to replace the links highlighted in
red the with the names of your links!
