View source for Better Redirect

In 1997 Roach designed a simple HTML / JavaScript page to serve as a redirect for visitor web browsers.  The redirect implements multiple techniques and failsafe to ensure that almost all web browsers respond properly to the redirect.  The redirect is compatible with all known web browsers including:

*Netscape - all versions
*Internet Explorer - all versions
*NCSA Mosaic
*Lynx (text mode browser)
*Mozilla
*Firefox
*Opera
*and more...

The Roach Better Redirect is licensed under the GNU GPL.  You may copy the HTML code below.  Simply use a Regex to find and replace the following string:

  <nowiki>http://REPLACEME/</nowiki>

You may also wish to add your own graphic logo by replacing the following:

  <nowiki>BODY background=http://www.robotz.com/images/tas4wm07.gif</nowiki>

With the full URL of the web page or site you wish to have visitors redirected to.
