Whenever I type www.tup.edu.ph in the address box the website that opens is gisco.net. What do I need to do to make sure that tup.edu.ph is the site that will open?

Typically when a web master wants to do maintenance to a site or when a site has been discontinued, a javascript to redirect you to another site is used. If this is the case in your question, you may try disabling your javescript support on your browser. Other than that I think you are going to be redirected to the other site by design.

Sorry Russ, I tried your suggestion but I'm still being redirected to the other site. Thanks anyway.

Unless you have access to the code of this site, there is nothing that you can do. There are many methods that websites use to redirect visitors.

www.tup.edu.ph is located at 64.19.76.20 and www.gisco.net is located at 64.19.76.24. Most likely Gisco.net is their web host, and they haven't paid the bill or are being redirected for some other reason.

Nothing the visitor to the site can do.

Try contacting Gisco and asking them the question. If the site you are trying to access has anything to do with gisco they will be able to tell you and if not maybe they will be able to suggest something for you to try. Other than that I'm all outof ideas.

Good Luck

I've already contacted gisco but they just confirmed my suspicion that I was being redirected.

HI,
Today 3rd April 2001, I access this URL www.tup.edu.ph , no problem at all, its not been redirecting anywhere, its opening the same website, its the website of "Technological Universtiy of the Philippines". Maybe that time when your are trying to access, the Domain Pointer is different i.e. its redirected to gisco.net website. Hope you will sure not be redirected this time. Try now.

GOOD LUCK...:)
