A “mirror” is a server which serves the same content as another —like a “backup” or alternate server for a site that has lots of traffic.

the DNS setting to resolve to the same site. That part is already in place and working perfectly for all five domain names

Good. Are you using Apache? Do you know if your host allows you to use .htaccess files? and if mod_rewrite is enabled? (If you don’t know, these are the questions to ask your host.)

After you figure out these things, we can look at writing RewriteRules to send visitors to specific pages based on the domain name they use.

BTW, if you haven’t figured it out yet, we won’t be using any javascript to solve this. @TheDoc or @Paulie_D, maybe this should be moved…?
