Redirecting index.cfm to dynamic.cfm without parameters :(

Hello Everyone, I have this code that works great, but there is one little problem.

When user inputs index.cfm it does not forward to plain dynamic.cfm

So it seems to me that i need to modify this code so it can handle at least one more option

The script works very well when user inputs index.cfm?myID=#url.myID then redirects to dynamic.cfm?myID=#url.myID

How could I make it work? Any help greatly appreciated 

<!-- File name: index.cfm -->

<cfoutput>

<cfif isDefined("url.myID") AND IsNumeric(url.myID) AND url.myID NEQ 0>    

<cfheader statuscode="301" statustext="Moved Permanently">    

<cfheader name="Location" value="dynamic.cfm?myID=#url.myID#">

</cfif>

</cfoutput>

<cfabort>

    You will need to add an "else" clause to your "if" statement. All you are doing is checking for the "myID" parameter and doing nothing if it doesnt exist.

    I assume you wont something like this:

    <cfoutput>
    

        <cfheader statuscode="301" statustext="Moved Permanently">
    

        <cfif isDefined("url.myID") AND IsNumeric(url.myID) AND url.myID NEQ 0>      
    

              <cfheader name="Location" value="dynamic.cfm?myID=#url.myID#">
    

        <cfelse>
    

              <cfheader name="Location" value="dynamic.cfm">
    

        </cfif>
    

    </cfoutput>
    

    <cfabort>
