OS: windows iis 7
ExpressionEngine 1.7.0
Build: 20101018
I need to be able to set up a “header” info field that places a meta refresh into the head of a single entry. The reason is we have a worker who got married and a lot of results in google take to her old page, we just want to redirect this single page to her new url which is a different post. Could anyone help me out and explain how this could be done? Thanks!

Disregard - I have figured this out using JavaScript.

Hi firefold,
Disregard - I have figured this out using JavaScript.
I’m glad you found a solution that works for you! Another route would be to set a 301 redirect directive in .htaccess In that regard, any one that visits the old URL would be redirected by the web server “at the gate” so to speak.
Cheers!

.htaccess is not an option as I am on a Windows IIS server 😕
