How to redirect a pdf

[mvr]

Hi all

I was using Response.Redirect for ASP pages, and
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh"
CONTENT="5; URL=html-redirect.html"> to redirectand html page.
Is there any we can redirect a pdf document from one server to another.
http://oldserver/test.pdf to http://newserver/newtest.pdf.
Any suggestions???

Thanks
mvr

Add a line or two in your 404.asp file capturing the not found pdf,
and do a redirect:

qstr = lcase(Request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING"))
if instr(qstr,"/test.pdf")>0 then
response.redirect "http://newserver/newtest.pdf"
end if
