I've created a master doctype with a "hide" attribute/property which all content pages can set.
To stop users viewing a page which has been flagged as hidden, I need to write a macro which redirect the user back to the home page, or a 'sorry' page.
Unfortunately, although I've dabbled with XSLT and macro's, I just can't seem to get very far at all!
Can anyone please help me out, is a macro the right way to go about it?
* I know about all the umbraco redirect built-in features. I've simplified my problem for explaination reason. I actually detect if a user is accessing the site from a mobile browser, if so I tag on the alttemplate with the MobileBrowser Template.aspx - but not all pages should be visible to mobile browsers - so I need a way to redirect them if they try accessing a page which has its 'hide from mobile browser visitors' property set to true :)

I've
seen suggestions to embed C# in the XSLT macro and use C#'s
Server.Refer or Reponse.Redirect, rather than relying on Javascript -
which could be turned off on the mobile browser...giving them access to a
'hidden' page.
