How do I set up changing pages automatically in Frontpage

[vranapmc]

After loading and displaying the home page for a web site for about 15 to 20
seconds I want to automatically load and display a new page.How do I set this
up using Frontpage 2003?

In HTML/Code view, add the following to the Head section:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="6; URL=http://www.yourwebsite.com">

The value given to 'content' is the number of seconds before the refresh
will take place; the value given to 'URL' is the page you want your visitor
sent to. You may also want to include a text link to the page in case your
visitor's browser does not support the 'refresh'.

Does your web host need to support server extensions for this to work?

No.

Be aware that this can create confusion for your visitors when they click
the browser's back button. It can also be looked at poorly by search engine
spiders....

It's an in-house project, we want various reports to be seen on the screen
for a certain amount of time and then pull up the next report - and then
cycle through again and again. Am I on the right track for accomplishing
this?

It could work under those circumstances.....
