Useful article in places, but rather bemused about the methods posited for redirection? Javascript is wildly inappropriate if your primary concern is unnecessary bandwidth consumption (mentioned in the preceeding paragraph) – considering that Javascript won’t even be excuted until after page load. And performing blanket redirects with no consideration for specific page requested (as per your PHP example) is a usability nightmare.
Why no .htaccess? Surely by far the most appropriate solution.
