automatic forwarding to a linked site

[Rob Tuttle]

Hello. Is there a way to setup an automatic link, so
that when a visitor accesses a specific page they will
automatically be forwarded to another specific linked URL
either immediately or after a specified amount of time?
I want to track access to linked pages/sites in Frontpage
reporting.
Thanks,

Use this command in your HTM

<meta http-equiv="Refresh" Content="10; URL=http://www.otherpage.html"

10 is the time delay in this string you can use lower for less time
www.otherpage.html is the page you want to goto

----> in seconds, so 10 means 10 seconds, 2 means 2 seconds, etc. From a
search engine standpoint, 10 seconds is usually recommended as the
minimum and there is at least one search engine (I forget which one at
the moment but I think I can dig it up if anyone cares) which in the
past (and perhaps still) used to consider anything less than 30 seconds
a deception strategy...
