Hello, I need to create a script that will automatically click a link after 30 seconds on one of my website pages. Is this possible?

Thanks :)

You need a hand or a finger to "click," but you can emulate the click:

<body onLoad="setTimeout('5000','document.location=http://www.example.com');">
<a href="http://www.example.com">If you don't click here in five seconds, we're sending you there anyway</a>

May need to tweak a quotemark or two, untested

Great thank you for the reply. Is there a way to target a frame in the javascript too?

Hello again,

Thanks :)
