Hi stef25,

Would the use of the meta tag do what you are after?
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;url=home.html">

Or you could do it with JavaScript using history() depending on what page you were intending on redirecting the user too!
<script language=javascript>
setTimeout("redirect()",5000);
function redirect(){
history.go(-1);
}
</script>
-1 will return the user back one page (in your instance to the actual form) -2 will return the user back to the page they entered the form from (hope that makes sense)
