Refresh Code

S

Sonars_UK

Hi,

I've recently developed a new website - which is now live.

During development we had a holding page online.

For marketing reasons we had four different urls pointing to the holding
page. The urls were including on adverts that appeared in different
magazines and we wanted to monitor which were successful.

Now when someone types in one of the four old holding page urls they had
supposed to get directed to the live website.

However, some visitors are still seeing the old holding pages.

We used the following code to redirect them to the live website and would
like to know if we can add any code that will automatically refresh their
browser:

<html>

<head>
<title>Living It Up - Contemporary furniture. Online shop</title>
</head>

<body bgcolor="#808080"
onload="document.location='http://www.livingitup.co.uk/acatalog/index.html'">

</body>

</html>

Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Best regards,

Sonars UK

In HTML 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'.
