| jumping to a url automatically onload via timeline in dreamweaver |

msg:3880012 | 10:49 am on Mar 27, 2009 (gmt 0) | Hi Everyone - this is my first post but I'm guessing probably the first of many considering the size of the task I've undertaken! I have a simple (very short) animated gif image, set to play once, and I want the browser to jump to another page automatically once it has played, as I don't want the user to have to physically click or do anything. I'm using dreamweaver, and I'm guessing that this is where the timeline feature will come in, but I can't find a behaviour to do this. I have a feeling I'm missing something simple here, so apologise in advance if thats the case. Thanks everyone - this is an awesome forum btw! Ian.

You may want to use a javascript timer that executes a redirect after a set amount of seconds. Would having "onload" in the image tag not work? this thread [webmasterworld.com] from the javascript forum may lend a clue. [edited by: brotherhood_of_LAN at 11:24 am (utc) on Mar. 27, 2009]
