Redirecting from one index.html page to 2 urls

I need to use javasctipt to redirect to a URL

I currently use something like:

<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">
 window.location="http://app1.mydomain.com/red";
</SCRIPT>

But now I need the redirect to be smart and go to a different executable based on the host.

Example

red.mydomain.com -->  http://app1.mydomain.com/red
blue.mydomain.com -->  http://app1.mydomain.com/blue

Further complicating matters I need the parameters to remain in tact.

blue.mydomain.com/?parameter1=abc?paramteter2=123 -->http://app1.mydomain.com/blue/?parameter1=abc?paramteter2=123

How does one "read" the in URL and do a case statement to branch it out?

How does one keep the paramter string so He can pass it in tact?

Create two Sub domains Red and Blue and then You will have

red.example.com blue.example.com

Then In your .htacsess put in

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^red\.example\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.red\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "https\:\/\/example\.com\/red" [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blue\.example\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.blue\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "https\:\/\/example\.com\/blue" [R=301,L]

and now when someone now goes to red.mydomain.com they will be redirected to https://example.com/red before the page loads making the redirect faster than loading the page then redirecting them to then load another page.

  • Remember to change the domain name when copying and also if you don't have a ssl change https:// to http:// on the last line of both of them.

I Hope this helps, Lewis
