you have to do it with java script. Tie some java script to the onWindowOpen event, the code is something like
document.href = "new web page to go to"
as far as the delay goes, just have the java script sit in a loop for a while. My apologies that I dont know the exact syntax off the top of my head.

actually, a more sophisticated approach is to change the data in the datagram header.
I'm not sure exactly how to do it but I think it is a "meta" tag that you have to change. I took this in the summer and its too late for me to recall. If you have a reference text though check under the meta tag section.

Just use a metatag (put it between the head tags). Switch the []'s below to <>'s and change the "30" in the "content" part to be the delay in seconds that you want. [meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30;URL=http://www.google.com"]

Oh, and change the URL part to the page you want to go to. :)

Is this possible ?? I have a form and on of the fields in the form is a radio button choice. Is it possible that if they choose one choice it takes them to one site and if they choose the other one it takes them to a different site? How would that work ?

Re Post 5:
use an if-then statement in javascript where you say if this is selected, go to this page, if this other is selected, go to this other page. Assign each option an identifier, otherwise you would have to use DOM to identify which is selected (which can be tougher).

WiddleAvi, you might be best served with a automatic pulldown menu. You can get an example of this at javascriptsource.com.

that wouldn't work. The radio button is part of a form. They must fill out the entire form and submit it but which page the submit button takes you too I want to depend on which choice they chose on that radio button.

The why not make that the last question and have them submit according to their choice?
