Timed page redirects

[0be1]

I am not sure if it is a page redirection I am looking for or some other terminology but here is what I am trying to do. We are using a different mailing list program and I have setup ez-pages to explain to the customer what to do once subscribed. You may see that page at:

http://www.swansoninc.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=1

and to unsubscribe at: http://www.swansoninc.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=2

Once that part of the screen has been showing for say 20 seconds I want

http://www.swansoninc.com/index.php?main_page to load.

I hope this makes sense

Add this to the page you want to redirect from:

<script type="text/javascript">
setTimeout( "window.location.href = 'http://www.swansoninc.com/'", 20*1000 );
</script>

Thanks for the quick reply, but that did not work. I pasted the code in my ezpage (yes, I click on the html editor <> when I pasted) and it did not do anything. Is there something special to make javascript work within ez-pages?

Thanks...

I tested it on one of my EZ-Pages before posting and it successfully redirected to your site. It's PHP which has a problem with EZ-Pages, JavaScript is okay. Sure you waited 20 seconds? Did you copy and paste the code directly from here? You might try pasting it into something like Notepad first. Not sure what else to suggest.

I did copy and paste it into notepad first (the second time) and it still did not work. I also viewed the page source and this is what stupid html area did

<script type="text/javascript">
setTimeout( &quot;window.location.href = 'http://www.swansoninc.com/'&quot;, 20*1000 );
</script></div>
</div>
Not sure if it matters if the script has " or &quot

Yes I would think that's the problem.

I had to switch to fckeditor for zc to get it to work. Now it works flawlessly!!!

Thanks for the help
