About Page forwarding.

When some companies get a new homepage, their old page will "Forward you in 5 sec. or click here if it doesn't"

How do you send somebody to a a new page?

Here is what I use fro http://news.inmatrix.com

Code:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<title>Infomatrix News</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://news.inmatrix.com/news/index.shtml">
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#ECECEC">
</body>
</html>

Just a warning some users will have meta refresh disabled

I use the meta version and a nice flabby javascript version too

Code:

<body bgcolor=#ffffff text=#000000 link=#000000 alink=#000000 vlink=#000000 onLoad="settimes()"> 
<script language=JavaScript>
function display() { 
	rtime=etime-ctime;
	if (rtime>60)
		m=parseInt(rtime/60);
	else {
		m=0;
	}
	s=parseInt(rtime-m*60);
	if(s<10)
		s="0"+s;
	window.status=+s;
	window.setTimeout("checktime()",1000);
}

function settimes() {
	var time= new Date();
	hours= time.getHours();
	mins= time.getMinutes();
	secs= time.getSeconds();
	etime=hours*3600+mins*60+secs;
	etime+= 25;
	checktime();
}

function checktime() {
	var time= new Date();
	hours= time.getHours();
	mins= time.getMinutes();
	secs= time.getSeconds();
	ctime=hours*3600+mins*60+secs
	if(ctime>=etime) 
		expired();
	else
		display();
}


function expired() {
	window.status="Refreshing...";
	window.location.reload()
}

</script>

i prefer the java one for my web cam page(s) refresh, as it adds a niffy timer to the status bar

i believe there is a simple dreamweaver plug in for this if anyone cares, check out massimocorner.com(i think the url is right...but its a fairly tempermental sight)

if you use ASP, use response.redirect("URL")

so easy
