Hai Jason,

Thanks a lot for the reply.

you are right I call the perl script in form page.

How to output a meta refresh tag from PHP? and is it in form or in the main page?

In form page after I call the perl script which changes the IP address of the
server,

I have header("Location:https://$HTTP_HOST/mainpage.php";);    ( I use https)

which tries to redirect to main page.

Can you please explain me where should I output meta refresh tag.

Is the meta refresh tag is the same as the one I have in HTML.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content ="15">

regards,
adharsh.
