Build a JavaScript and have it execute as the document loads... i.e. in the body tag with an onLoad event...
the header function in php will not do anything if you have sent output already -----Original Message----- From: Carl Furst [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: June 13, 2003 9:23 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Redirects in PHP I want to do one of those redirect pages where a php script prints HTML saying "sorry we're not here, we're redirecting you to the right location" and then after about 2-3 seconds a new location header gets printed and you are transported to the new location. I see this everywhere but don't know how it's done. I tried this by printing the "Location" header first and then the text and it just relocated me without seeing the text. I tried printing the text first and then the "Location" header and php complains that my header was already sent and I can't modify it to relocate. How do you do this?? Is there something in the header I have to specify to wait before it relocates? Do I have to do it manually by printing the text.. tell the script to wait and then clear the header somehow and send a new one (can that be done?) I looked at HTTP1.1 docs and I didn't really get anywhere. Any ideas?
