Hi all, i'm on 4.1.11 , i have create a simple static html page for my main domain www.mydomain.net ..... i would to add a redirect from this main page to the forum Homepage after x seconds. For example, a user visit my main domain page www.mydomain.net, after some seconds i want that will load the forum homepage.... Is it possible to do this? And how? Thanks in advance.

You should be able to do it by putting this in your html:

Code:

<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="X; URL=www.mydomain.net/forum" />

(obviously you'd change the X to the number of seconds you want, and also change the url).

You can also do it in javascript. If you look at the bottom part of the STANDARD_REDIRECT template there's code that does it in javascript unless the browser has javascript disabled.

Try this Script (in headinclude template)

PHP Code:


			
<script type="text/javascript">
setTimeout(function () { location.href='http://URL'; }, 5000); 
</script>

where 5000 = 5 seconds (1000 = 1 seconds)

I'm not really a js expert or anything, but it looks OK. The only thing I would say is maybe instead of just calling countredirect() to get it started, put onload="countredirect()" in your body tag, that way it won't start until the whole page is loaded.

Done, thanks kh99

How to set it to redirect and not keep refreshing the page?
