A term that describes frontend redirects
We can talk about backend redirects when we redirect a user from example.com/1.html to example.com/2.html (without a link); the server is asked to do it by some backend-language such as PHP or by JavaScript and a 301/302 redirect is logged as done.
But let's assume that we present two different pseudo-webpages in just one given true webpage; say, we ask the server to show document X in a modal and we also ask the server that if a certain condition was met, react that document Y would be shown instead (we "frontendly redirect" the user from one pseudo-webpage to another pseudo-webpage).
Is there a term to describe such "frontend redirects" with the current web standards?
