I couden't really understand what you were trying to say, but this is the redirect code:

Place this code somewhere in between the <head> </head> tags.

Code:

<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/index.html">

ok. im sory, i cant explain clearly.bad english na

let me try once more.....
suppose in my homepage there r 4 different links to another pages say i.e A, B, C ,D.
and 1 more page, say 'X'
now i need a simple code which i put on my homepage and
when any1 click on A/B/C/D it will 1st go through from page 'X' after 10 seconda it will redirect to the page a user want to see.

Destination page may be different,
bt before reaching any page user have to cross the page 'X' for 10 seconds.
---------Code??

I can only think of two options.
One would be (if you had 4 links) to make 4 pages, each with a different redirect code for the different page to redirect to.
The other would be to use one page, with a lot of IF/ELSE php statements in it for the different links. Like "if link A was clicked, use the redirect code for page A".

Or something like that.....

It might just be easier to make a few pages, each with a different redirecting code in it. Like for example this:

<a href="pageAredirect.html">Page A</a>
<a href="pageBredirect.html">Page B</a>
<a href="pageCredirect.html">Page C</a>

code for page A
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageA.html">

code for page B
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageB.html">

code for page C
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageC.html">

You could do it in PHP without using IF statements if you pass a redirect variable through the url and get the redirect page to use that...

That's what I was thinking, so you would only need one redirect page and then just pass the destination through a variable, very easy.

You could also do it with switches

(since you don't like my if/else idea)

then have the links be something like redirect.php?go=page1 have it go to the redirect page, then to the intended page

Well if you wanted to use switches, you could do something like

PHP Code:

 
<html>
<head>
<title>Redirection Portal</title>
<?php
switch ($_GET['go']):
  case "pageA":
  echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageA.html">";
  break;
    case "pageB":
    echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageB.html">";
    break;
  case "pageC":
  echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageC.html">";
  break;
      case "pageD":
      echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageD.html">";
      break;
default:
echo "Unknown redirection";
endswitch;
?>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Your redirection will begin in 10 seconds</h1>
(Whatever else you want to add
This is the general redirection page that all the links will share
the only difference is the <meta> tag we just entered
in the PHP that says where we redirect to)
</body>
</html>

Let's say you saved that as links.php then in your links, you add links.php?go=pageA (or whatever letter)

<a href="links.php?go=pageC">Go to page C</a>

I just realized I messed up on the quotes. (I had conflicting quotes in the code).

Replace the php block with this

<?php
switch ($_GET['go']):
case "pageA":
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='"10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageA.html'>";
break;
case "pageB":
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageB.htm'>";
break;
case "pageC":
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageC.html'>";
break;
case "pageD":
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageD.html'>";
break;
default:
echo "Unknown redirection";
endswitch;
?>

Sorry about that, hopefully you figured it out on your own so you didn't get an error message

This is a single page. Just add new cases as needed

Every link will go to this one single redirection page, then after 10 seconds will go to the intended page.

Actually it should be replaced with this:

<?php
switch ($_GET['go']):
case "pageA":
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageA.html'>";
break;
case "pageB":
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageB.htm'>";
break;
case "pageC":
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageC.html'>";
break;
case "pageD":
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/pageD.html'>";
break;
default:
echo "Unknown redirection";
endswitch;
?>

You had '" instead of ' at the top in red.

Eriksrocks · 12-Nov-2006, 10:54 AM **#13**

Well actually I just thought of a better way to do it so you don't need to add a case for each page.

PHP Code:

  <?php

 
if( $_GET['go'] != null )

{

$location = $_GET['go'] . ".html";

}

 
echo( "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='10; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/" . $location . "'>";

 
?>

Just dynamically takes go and adds .html to the end and then redirects to that page in 10 seconds. So if you had links.php?go=mypage then it would redirect to http://www.yourdomain.com/mypage.html.

If you wanted to have it redirect to /folder/page.html you could have it like this:
links.php?go=folder/page.html

Thanks Erik for pointing that out

Be careful using that if your site stores passwords in cookies or anything like that, as it would be open to cross-site scripting.
