web forwarding / framed forwarding There are 2 replies
Original Message posted by gbuk on 09/07/2008 at 2:50:28PM
Hi all,

I have been asked to develop a website by a local charity.

From choice I would like to build and host this on my current server.

They have, however, already purchased their .org domain name through get dotted/freeola.

The simplest option (and one that I have used for a number of other websites with domains purchased from my regular suplier) would be to have framed web forwarding set up to redirect the domain name. (framed from preference, so that their domain name, rather than mine shows)

Any one know if freeola offer this? I can't find it on the website - I rather presume I need to be logged into the domain account to find out, and as yet do not have the log on details (the chairman of the charity is writing to me with the details - and I do mean writing not emailing, so it may take a few days!!!)(he's not very IT savy)

If forwarding is not an option I will need to transfer the domain out, but this will delay things (and cost a few quid)

Any help gratefully recieved.

Several services I've seen use a simple frame structure within the index.html file to route to another domain name, for example:

index.html
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
  <head>
    <title>This site goes straight to Google...</title>
  </head>
  <frameset rows="*,0">
    <frame name="Site" src="http://www.google.co.uk/" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="auto" frameborder="0">
    <frame name="Required for netscape" src="" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="none" frameborder="0">
  </frameset>

There is not a automatic method setup for doing this, but if you put on a support ticket at http://freeola.com/support/request with sufficient details to identify you have control of the account and the url that you want the Frame put to, we should be able to do that for you.
