header ("Location:", TIME)

**JAB Creations** · 03-17-2008, 09:37 PM

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:

Code:

$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...

Code:

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

PHP Code:


$time=1; //seconds to wait

sleep($time);

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

PHP Code:


<head>

<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="5; http://localhost" />

</head>

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.

my post used header("location: ...");

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.
