Simple Javascript Redirect

I’m not really sure that there is really any good reason to use this but here it is anyway. A simple javascript redirect tutorial for you to Enjoy.

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
window.location = "http://www.benkaeding.com/"
//-->
</script>

When the script above is placed is is on a page, it automatically redirect the visitor to the new url.

If you would like a little delay so you can let people know that they are being redirected, place the following in the head of your html…

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function delayer(){
    window.location = "http://www.benkaeding.com/"
}
//-->
</script>

and add this to your body tag…

onLoad="setTimeout('delayer()', 5000)"

Here’s a simplified html example using the script and a five second delay.

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function delayer(){
    window.location = "http://www.benkaeding.com/"
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="setTimeout('delayer()', 5000)">
<h2>Prepare to be redirected to www.BenKaeding.com!</h2>
<p>There will be a 5 second delay before you are redirected to my homepage.</p>
</body>
</html>

Just change the number to whatever amount of time you want (in milliseconds).
