Redirect Script

**benslayton** · 06-01-2006, 06:49 PM

I have this script that needs to wait 2 min. & 4 secs. before redirecting

HTML Code:

<html>
<title>Redirect</title>
<body onload=setTimeout("location.href='http://www.domian.com'",5) bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
</body>
</html>

what does the number 5 go to?

It causes the script to wait five milliseconds (0.005 of a second) before redirecting.
You should really use a meta refresh here, if you must use anything.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Redirect</title>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="124;url=http://www.domian.com">
  </head>
  <body onload="window.setTimeout(function(){location.href='http://www.domian.com';}, 1000 * (60 * 2 + 4)) style="background-color:white;color:black;">
    <p>
      Sorry, you should have been redirected to <a href="http://www.domian.com">http://www.domian.com</a>.
    </p>
  </body>
</html>

Ok mypage is not doing that. I'm trying to beat the flash before it redirects. Sugg.

The first time I saw "thekristo" I thought it was pretty cool... Still do actually! I wouldn't have it running non-stop though. Kinda gets to much the second/third time around.

Ok well I still can have it redirect to another page, just need help.

**tech_support** · 06-02-2006, 03:21 AM

Oh...

2min and 4sec...

HTML Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>Redirect</title>
<script>
function redirect(url,min,sec) {

setTimeout("window.location = url",min*60*1000+(sec*1000))

}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="redirect('http://www.domain.com',2,4)" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
Redirecting...
</body>
</html>

Ooops... My Bad

Twey posted this:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="124;url=http://www.domian.com">

Put that in the head section, with whatever else you want on the page. That will do it.

**benslayton** · 06-04-2006, 11:13 PM

So I changed 124 to 10 to test, that is the time right? If it is it dont work Try It.

It redirects to entry.asp from the flash. i would make a page called entry.asp but My webserver wont allow asp.

1. Yes, that's time, in seconds.
2. Nope... not working.
3. in your source, it appears that you might be using xml, with self-closing tags: <link ... />... so... maybe the meta needs to be like <meta ... /> too? Aside from that, looks right. I'm not sure about the /> thing.
4. just change the redirected url, then.
5. If asp isn't allowed, then don't use asp... why are you trying to?
