Javascript redirect from subdomain URL to domain page

Code snippet below - needs to be fixed - How?

Now when user submits http://courses.jamarlearning.com, user is sent to http://www.jamarlearning.com/index.html. This is set up by ISP subdomain

What I want is when user submits http://courses.jamarlearning.com user is sent to http://www.jamarlearning.com/courses.html in the same folder as index.html. Using file (courses.html) name did not work in subdomain string

Thanks for help with this.

Cheers, Jim

Script placed as shown sends to user to http://www.jamar.learning.com - not http://www.jamarlearning.com/courses.html

What's wrong?

initially you wrote:
>What I want is when user submits http://courses.jamarlearning.com user is sent to ...

so that is what the script is doing; sending the users from http://courses.jamarlearning.com to http://www.jamarlearning.com/courses.htm

On your last post you are talking about a different url:
http://www.jamar.learning.com

Perhaps this will help you:
<html><head>
....

<script type="text/JavaScript">


<!--
if ( /courses\.jamarlearning\.com/i.test(location.hostname) || /courses\.jamar\.learning\.com/i.test(location.hostname)) {

<!--
function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i<a.length; i++)

Hello again,

What I want is when user submits http://courses.jamarlearning.com user is sent to http://www.jamarlearning.com/courses.html in the same folder as index.html. Using file (courses.html) name did not work in subdomain string

courses.jamarlearning.com is the correct URL. Both of the scripts below send the user to http://www.jamarlearning.com/index.html. Scripts are in <head>...</head> of http://courses.jamarlearning.com/index.html

The file I want users to see is: http://www.jamarlearning.com/courses.html



<!--
if ( /courses\.jamarlearning\.com/i.test(location.hostname) || /courses\.jamar.learning\.com/i.test(location.hostname)) {
window.location = "http://www.jamarlearning.com/courses.html";
}

<!--

if ( /courses\.jamarlearning\.com/i.test(location.hostname) ) {
window.location = "http://www.jamarlearning.com/courses.html";
}

I believe this is what you want.

Script (1) below works in an interesting way - in local browser (IE7), local file URL (E:\Sites\JAMARLearning\index.html) sends me to local file URL (E:\Sites\JAMARLearning\courses.html) and remains in the loop.

Script (1) or (2) below have no effect when files (Dreamweaver template & index.html) are uploaded to remote server (GoDaddy.com)

My original goal remains unobtainable:

"What I want is when user submits http://courses.jamarlearning.com user is sent to http://www.jamarlearning.com/courses.html in the same folder as index.html."

What does work (always has) is 'when user submits http://courses.jamarlearning.com user is sent to http://www.jamarlearning.com/index.html'

Sorry for so many words, but hard to explain
