Create redirect link in Web Designer 6

Add this to the head section of the page.

The "5" refers to the delay in seconds before the page redirects to the new one.

Code:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;url=nameofpage.htm">

Will try that. Thank you!

(If this reply got posted twice, apologies for the repeat.)

Cheers.

Just to add to Drwyd' help, to add this in WD6 you will require a placeholder named <head>

I greatly appreciate the tip and especially the jpeg's to help find where to perform this task.

Thank you!

Can the above be used to auto redirect to another website? I would like to auto direct from an old but still functional website to a new website.

Miko - I should think so. Just include the entire URL.

And there is certainly one way to verify this.

Try it.
