Redirection WITHOUT Cloaking

[JustinSurfer]

Right, I have a domain name , koponline.cc , and i want to redirect to my f2s account , which is not allowed if I cloak , What I want to know is what code can I insert into a page that will display the f2s address on top , I am currentley using a manual link with the target="_top" tag on the link, But if I had an automatic way of doing this, it would be much easier?

Thanks

you can use javascript or refresh mata-tag like this:
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="5;url=http://you.f2s.com">
(this will redirect to your site after 5 seconds)

BUT .. I am using f2s with cloaking since April of 2000 and I had no problems at all ... is this a new policy?

doesn't work . I need a tag like target = top in there as it is really in a frameset but with only one frame, it's a paid namezero domain.

Term F says you are not allowed top level domains , but here is the email I got from Chris :

think this has always been implicit in the rules - it's just been made
explicit.

We get some exposure by people having f2s.com domain names. But some
people simple cloak or divert their top level domain names with other
companies to our free web space - so that the f2s.com bit is never
noticed by the person surfing. Some companies appear to even be selling
their services based on f2s.com redirection as well(!)

So, this is not allowed.... Remember that top level domain hosting is a
revenue stream for us (although our pricing is still extremely
competetive) and ultimately this funds the free hosting service. The
free hosting is for those who can't afford, or don't want to spend any
extra money on webhosting but do want access to the latest open source
technologies.

Thanks

Chris

Wow, you got an answer from f2s. I bow to you. :)

Just curious, do namezero force a frame on you even when you've paid?

lol, I have got a few during my time, it pays to say thanks and you are satisfied and to treat them with respect, of course capitals in the title helps a lot :)

yeah you are in a frame , thats why I need some code so i can get my page to go on top automatically otherwise I am breaking the terms and conditions.

Sorry, this isn't helping you much, but if you've bought your domain from them why don't you move to another registrar and get rid of them altogether? There are alot of threads about the howto in the domain forum.

Here is some javascript that will do it.

If you are doing this on the page that is sending people elsewhere:

top.location.href='http://www.foo.f2s.com/';

Or if you want to break out of frames from a page inside of them:

if (top != self) {
top.location.href=document.location;
}

The second one is very useful if you want to make it impossible for other pages to frame your pages. (assuming people have javascript turned on)

Darn' you, jon787! ;) I new I had seen one somewhere and just found it at irt.org (your second one). Seems to work real transparent too. Good one.

Thanks Jon , Brilliant , does the trick superbly :)

Looks like you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. Unless NameZero doesn't care about the frame if you're a paying user, I've never actually seen a paid NameZero domain.

It's Illegal on free :D

It's not like I use the domain anymore. I'd bu it away from them, but as I said: I don't use it anymore.
