Learn how to auto redirect people to a page of your choice using html.


Heres a nifty little trick for you use to redirect someone to another page on the internet or within your website.
Open up the page that will contain the redirect.
Here is my example page,

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
<html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”>
<head>
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”text/html; charset=iso-8859-1″ />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
</body>
</html>

Now in between <head> & </head> type

<meta http-equiv=”refresh” content=”3; URL=http://www.hv-designs.co.uk/index.php”>

“refresh” content=”3; means that the page will refresh in 3 seconds. Just change the number 3 to the number of seconds you want to use.

URL=http://www.hv-designs.co.uk/index.php replace this with your URL.
