Code:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=http://www.webforumz.com/">

2 is a 2 second delay before redirection, set it to 0 for instant

hmmm catalyst i'm not sure what you were thinking.. hehe.. here's the correct way:

Code:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=http://www.webforumz.com">

and just like catalyst mentioned, 2 is the number of seconds in which it will wait until it redirects to the specified url.

LOL, the redirecting code on here is messing with things.

anyway, it should be

Code:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url = ht tp://ww w.webforumz.com">

without the extra spaces of course

Code:

<script language=javascript>
window.location.href='page.asp';
</script>

But that won't work if Javascript is disabled Smokie... The other method will always work.

Hah! Sorry about that.. don't i feel like a fool :o

Anywho, yea you should always use the meta method, not the javascript method. (Or if you don't want meta tags, change the headers with php

)
