I have used a timed header location before. It looks something like this though the code below doesn't work (instant redirect)...


header ("Location: http://localhost/", 10);

Using any other method other then header/location is not the answer I'm looking for (such as using refresh, or a different language).

Try this:



$url ="http://localhost"; //here you set the url
$time_out = 10; //here you set how many seconds to untill refresh
header("refresh: $time_out; url=$url");

It's not the answer I am seeking though it's close enough...


header("refresh: 5; url=http://localhost/");

$time=1; //seconds to wait
sleep($time);
header ("Location: http://localhost/");

People are not reading my original post which clearly states "Using any other method other then header/location is not the answer" though refresh is close but not the original code I remembered. I would have posted in a clientside forum if I wanted to do this via clientside.

But yours doesn't use the refresh, besides we solved it already.

I don't think we need any more answers. The question has been answered, the end. Master_script_maker, please read the post fully before answering the question.
