You will need to use JavaScript to be able to check if the element exists and do the redirect.

Assuming the div has an id (e.g. div id=elementId) you can simply do:

if (!document.getElementById(elementId)) {

    window.location.href = redirectpage.html;

}

If you are using jQuery, the following would be the solution:

if ($(#elementId).length === 0){

    window.location.href = redirectpage.html;

}

Addition:

If you need to check the content of divs for a specific word (as I think that is what you are now asking) you can do this (jQuery):

$(div).each(function() {

    if ($(this).text().indexOf(copyright) >= 0)) {

        window.location.href = redirectpage.html;

    }

});
