If month is december redirect, if not then dont HTML JS

[WillLTT]

if (month=december):
   location.replace(site1.html);
else
   location.replace(site2.html);

how do i do something simmilar too that code, of course that code is dummy code and dont work. 

so If month december then goto html1 if not html2

Got it? 

 

im really noob at js, however ill try my best to understand.

Any help will be apprichiated.

if (new Date().getMonth() == 11) {
  // It's December
} else {
  // It's not December
}

Note that months are 0-indexed in javascript, so January=0...December=11. This uses the time and time zone of the computer that it's running on.

if (new Date().getMonth() == 11) {
	location.replace("chr/index.html");
} else {
	location.replace("index.html");
}

it just sends me back and forwards between sites the specified sites.

Eventually it stops and the original site. im confused.

 

i wanted it to send you to chr/index.html if december and if not goto index.html

your code seems todo, but it wount stop redirecting.. until it stops and ends on original site

Does "chr/index.html" also have a redirect in its code? I probably stops, due to "too many redirects". Take a look at the browsers "Network" tab in developer tools.

In other words, you open "index.html", it redirects you to "chr/index.html", which redirects you to "chr/index.html", which redirects you to "chr/index.html", ... at some point the browser will give up.

 

You probably need a safeguard, like so:

if (new Date().getMonth() == 11 && !location.endsWith("chr/index.html")) {
	location.replace("chr/index.html");
} else {
	location.replace("index.html");
}

still infinite redirect, check the source if you can make it work

 

thanks for helping me

 

also no i never sends me to chr/index.html because its not december yet.

its redirects me to index.html over and over again, but chr/index.html does not send me to index as its supposed todo beacause its not christmas

I won't be home for the rest of the day. I can have a look at it tomorrow, unless someone else has solved it in the meantime.

 

My first suggestion would be to add the same type of safeguard to index.html, i.e. only redirect if you're not already on that page.

I have expanded @Eigenvektor code to use absolute paths. Comments explains whats going

// if month is december
if (new Date().getMonth() == 11) {
	// if user is at site.com/ or site.com/index.html
	// redirect to site.com/char/index.html
	if (window.location.pathname == "/" || window.location.pathname == "/index.html") {
		window.location.replace("/chr/index.html");
	}

}
// month is not decemeber
else {
	// if user is at site.com/char/
	// redirect to site.com/index.html
	if (window.location.pathname.startsWith("/chr/")) {
		window.location.replace("/index.html");
	}
}
