Hey,

I am looking to 301 redirect a bunch of old pages (.shtml) to the new index.html (same server).

However as it's on a windows server, .htaccess won't work (I don't have any shell or root access to amend conf etc either unfortuantly).

The .asp 301 redirect isn't much help either as the pages requiring the 301 are .shtml.

I've temporarily used meta redirect on each old page, but this isn't ideal... is there anyway to perform a 301 redirect on .html (.shtml) pages on a window server?

Cheers in advance

Hi,

Implementing such redirects is always a problem on Windows server. But as you are using shtml and if your server allows server side includes then you can include a .asp file in your .shtml pages and in it you can write the code for 301 redirect. You can also try including a CGI script if your server allows that.

Hope this works for you!

Cheers,

Good idea, thanks

Nope, doesn't work - I think because by including the asp file, all we're doing is adding asp code into a .shtml file... so no luck there...

Anyone know of any other 301 redirect for html?

Cheers
