Hi, I like to have one page to be completely replaced by another. The link variable [~id~] seems the right candidate, but where do I apply this in the original page? Thanks.

You have to use it like this:

Code:

<a href="[~id~]">Link Text</a>

I actually meant a complete document, so link id1 to id2. When a request comes in for id1, it serves the contents of id2. Must be simple, but how.

Create weblinks that point to your document!

I am not sure your objectives:
1) include the content of page 2 in page 1
 -> Use a snippet like GetField to load the data from one page to another, or bind a TV to the content of another page

2) redirect the browser to page 2 from page 1
 -> Use a wblink or a redirect snippet (phiRedirect works well)

3) forward page 1 to page 2 (in forward the URL will still say page 1)
 -> Use the sendForward api call (like is used for error pages)

or just link to the actual document you want to show, no need to make work for yourself.

Sorry for late response, was away, but the API sendForward call is doing what I want: a request for page 1 delivers page 2. Page 1 is an existing home page, where is the right place to add this call? Wrap it in a snippet and add it to the header? Or is there a more direct/faster way to do so?

UPDATE: API call wrapped in snippet works fine, pass in a document id and wherever the parser encounters the call, jumps to the other document.

Thanks
