The RedirectOnHost class acts as the underlying engine for the Redirect on host Content Studio component.
Create an instance of this object, set the properties that does not have their default values you expect and call the invoke method.
The generates inline code thus you must wrap it into a block element in order for the resulting code to validate.
The code generated is fully HTML/XHTML strict compatible.
This class can throw exceptions thus your code should be wrapped within try/catch statements in order to avoid the entire page to crash.
The following code demonstrates how to use the RedirectOnHost class.
to redirect visitors to different parts of a web page based on the URL entered by the user. Typically you place this code on the top of a start page that acts as a switch between different parts of the website. Depending on the url the caller entered she will be redirected to different parts (ex. localized versions) of the web site. In this case the site has three domain pointing at the same site http://mycompany.se for international, http://mycompany.dk for Danish and http://mycompany.com for international vistors. In order to work this Content Studio site must be configured to use Multi homing both in Content Studio and in the web server.
