Cpanel Redirect problem

[BigEmmaFanz]

Odd, in cpanel's redirect function/service... It allows us to redicect a specific page to another right?

like for example, my account is "emwatson.x10hosting.com"

They have there http://emwatson.x10hosting.com/ [_________] Where we insert what we want as a redirect point and then another box to "where we want to redirect" visitors to.

So I insert "index.php" cause I wanna change the layout of my site and don't want people entering the site at the moment.

Here's where the problem starts... It also somehow redirects ALL "index.php"s on my subdomains. Which is obviously what I don't want.

Any thoughts?

make an index page that uses a javascript redirect code?

The redirect function is for using directories to redirect, not pages.

Sorry Cynical but can you elaborate? I don't understand...

Sorry its been a few days...

What I mean is you use the redirect so when you enter your URL in your address bar, you put a directory name (your redirect) at the end and it will redirect to the page you tell it to. For example, a good redirect would be something like "fish" or "kaloobja", not "wtf.php".

Good redirect: http://emwatson.x10hosting.com/thisisagoodredirect
Bad redirect: http://emwatson.x10hosting.com/thisi...ilikeclams.php

Hope that helps .

At the top of index.php add:

<?php

$page = 'Page you want to redirect to.';
header('Location: '. $page);

?>
