Is it possible to find out if the provided website has a re-direct?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I am trying to build a front end application which will an input text box.
When a user enters an URL in the text field(ex www.google.com, wwww.facebook.com, www.linked.com, etc..), the web app should tell the user whether if the provided address has a re-direction?
Can it be done from ajax?
html ajax

AJAX likely won’t be able to request anything for most URLs your users will input, because of CORS not being enabled by many of them.

You can send a GET request to the URL and see what it returns.
Every HTTP response will come with a status code.
You can see the full list of HTTP status codes here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes
A 301 means the URL has a permanent redirect and a 302 means there is a temporary redirect.
