@okkimus And how does that work? There is no directory like "example.com/bla/ on that server, and specially now with a file that has the exact same content like in it as the URL I am referring to.
And if that was the case... it would be really stupid. What about https? And how insecure... -
@Benedikt
Well, if the site you want to redirect uses https just replace http with https...duh
Webdev, I should send a form to a site that gets the results and redirects back to the webpage that stands in an invisible form data (very weird!).
Okay, I did...
When I was finished the site didn't redirect to the URL I gave in the form, instead it showed parts(!) of the webpage's HTML.
Okay, I was a little bit surprised and mailed the dev of this weird thing. He answered with this:
"In this Internet thingy, you know, URLs start with 'http://', it's the newest shit!"
Holy shit! Is he serious!? Who the heck programmes such a site that needs a 'http://' in the beginning? (Does this guy know about https?)
And why, why!?, did it show contents of the target URL's site if you give it one without http!?
I, I will go now and get a mild tea, yeah...
