...and the index page contains the following tag (which isn't rendered
by any but the most ancient and ignorant browsers) in its HEAD section:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh"
CONTENT="5;URL=http://www.purple-sage.com/">
...then the browser would redirect to the purple-sage.com URL after 5
seconds.
We can perform the same function with JavaScript as well. If you don't
require a delay, simply include an onLoad event handler into the opening
BODY tag:
<BODY onLoad="window.location.href = 'http://www.purple-sage.com/'">
If, however, you need a delay, things get a little more complicated. A
function must handle a setTimeout() operation:
function redirect ()
{
setTimeout("window.location.href =
'http://www.purple-sage.com/'",10000);
}
This function causes a 5000-millisecond (five-second) delay before the
redirection takes place.
