How do you make a page redirect after a few seconds?

page redirects, contact forms

[Blade Runner]

After visitors sign either our guestbook or contact form, I show them a simple thank you page. I'd like to make the thank you page display for two or three seconds, then automatically bounce to the homepage (or anywhere else, for that matter). How do I do this?

Hi Blade_Runner,

<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="10; URL=index.html/"> This will send the visitor off to your index page after a 10 second spell has elapsed.

HTH,

Thank you George. It works perfectly, as advertised.
