While browsing the Internet, I've occasionally been
redirected to new web sites (new home pages); can this be
done between web pages within a web site? If so, can I
accomplish this within FrontPage?

Why I ask: We have a monthly newsletter on our web site,
and like to provide a constant link to the latest issue
so other web sites can link to it. We currently copy the
monthly newsletter to a "Current-Newsletter" file, and
provide a link to that file. However, keeping a duplicate
copy of the latest newsletter is creating maintenance
problems for us (e.g., maintaining links to images while
we create subwebs to reduce the size of our main web,
which is becoming too big to publish). If possible, we'd
like to use redirection to maintain a constant link to
the outside world; we would simply change the redirection
destination each month to point to the latest issue of
the newsletter. Thanks.

One simple way is with a meta refresh tag in the head of the page.
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="10; URL =thismonth.htm">

Added to the head section of the constant" page will redirect to a page named thismonth.htm in 10
seconds.

If the monthly letter is in another folder simply add the folder name to the link like so:
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="10; URL =foldername/thismonth.htm">

You can also use an absolute link:
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="10; URL =http://www.sitename.com/foldername/thismonth.htm">

<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh"
content="1;URL=http://yoursite.com/yourpage.htm">

The first part of the "content" attribute is the number of seconds to wait
before redirecting.
