It's called a redirect and there are several ways to do this. The best is to send an HTTP redirect header but that involves playing around with the server. The following, like other client side methods, will not always work so always provide a link.

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
location.replace('http://www.somewhere.else/')
// -->
</script>
