Not clear...
IF is not part of html (that build on tags)! Do you mean JavaScript? Do you have a peace of code to show?

You can use JavaScript[^] to do that:

HTML

<script type="text/javascript">
if (!document.referrer.endsWith('index.html'))
{
    window.location.replace('index.html');
}
</script>

Hope this helps.

Solution 1

Well, first off, HTML is not a scripting language with functionality. You will need to use JavaScript, Classic ASP, or some other scripting language to accomplish this task.

It is pretty easy in Classic ASP. You can do exactly what you want. Just do some research.
