1&1 - setting up web forwarding


[link to this post]
 
I've recently registered a domain name with 1&1

However, if I want to set up in Control Panel a forwarding web site it asks for:

"Forwarding Destination" which is in the form of http://bbc.co.uk

and

"Title" this is a required field. There is nothing (well, nothing that I could find) in their help file about what they want. I did find that by putting in the same as "Forwarding Destination" it worked, but surely they want something else.

You can't leave it blank. Any ideas please?

I think title is what appears in the <title> HTML tags in the frame forwarding page. Basically its what appears in the window title of your browser (eg "ADSLguide: 1&1 - setting up web forwarding - Mozilla Firefox"). If you check the window title when you visit your site you'll probably see it shows the address you entered in the title field, so just change it to whatever you want to be in the window title when people visit your site.

Cheers, thanks for that Adam. It makes sense now.
