    Can someone give me a good redirection script for redirecting to my forums?

    The one I used for the UBB doesn't work right, I just need a script that will redirect my main page "WrestlingForums.com" to my forums "WrestlingForums.com/forums/"

    While still keeping just my main address in the address bar.

    Ummm...i've seen it done before. I'm curious what are you asking for?

    And if you want to hide the address of your forums there's a way to do it through frames but some of my viewers are allergic to them.

          well i do this on [url]http://eva2000.com/board/[/url] which redirects to my vbulletin board

          just put the below code inbetween your head tags on the index page
          [quote]
          <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0 ; URL=http://animeboards.net/forums">
          [/quote]
          changing animeboards.net/forums to the url where you want to direct to your forums or any other url

          content="0 means redirect in 0 seconds... you can change that to whatever you want

              That was too easy!

              Of course if you could just install your forums in the root directory and you wouldn't have a problem, however I have my main web site running there so can't do that. However a certain domain I would like to come straight into the forums (without a refresh), so I did -

              <BASE HREF="http://forum.motorsportforums.com/forums/">
              <!--#include virtual="/forums/index.php" -->

              My index page works off SSI but I suppose the equivalent PHP would work just as well.
