Redirecting/refreshing in multiple frames

Gerb · Jan 8, 2002

Hi,

I send people to a 'Thankyou for your comment page' after they've submitted a form. On this thankyou page, I would like to automatically redirect people after 4 seconds to the homepage in the frame that the thankyou appears in, but also refresh another frame at the same time. Is this possible?

Thanks.

Try this:

In <head> put:<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="5;URL=redirect.htm">

and add this to your body-tag: <BODY onUnload="javascript:top.frameName.location='file.htm'">

I do hope you understand that you'll have to change frameName into the name YOU gave the frame (in the frameset)that's loading 'file.htm'.

I don't think DW can do this last part, but you can find the refresh-option under: Insert >> Head tags >> Refresh

HTH
