Back to moving sites, I'm afraid.
We have our domain name, so it is listed as taken, so how do I get it moved to the new host?

Difficult. your current host will be reluctant to release it and they are generally considered to be the owner, you are just renting it from them. Personally, I use a domain name that has a redirection facility. The down side is you will need to change your domain name. The upside is you only need to do it once. Anyone logging into the domain goes to the pages I choose. There are a number of these available, some free, some paid for. A fairly cheap one that is suppose to be quite good. www.uk2.net/What you need to do is look at what they offer and be sure you can enter your own start page. Hope this helps. |

Sorry to contradict jojo but as far as I am aware the host does not have any claim to the ownership of a domain name. The Domain name belongs to the person or organization that paid for it and registered it in the first place, Fasthosts must allow you to transfer the site to a new host. Meanwhile add this code to your Greywolves.co.uk home page <script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function FP_goToURL(url) {//v1.0
window.location=url;
}
// -->
</script>
</head>
<body onload="FP_goToURL(/*href*/'http://www.wolverhamptonpensionersconvention.btik.com')"> it will automatically redirect browsers to your new site.

Incidentally delete the existing </head> tag. Re my last post about Greywolves I've set up a couple of example pages Enter either of these URL's www.bilston.org/home or www.bilston.org/test to see the code in action. |
