Re: pause

You can do it in PHP, HTML, or JavaScript, but it's only possible to send the control HTTP header with PHP if there is no body output sent yet, so PHP is out. I recommend: <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="<time>; url=<url>"> where <time> is the time to wait before refresh in seconds and <url> is the _complete_ url to redirect to. Note that the time and url are both inside the content property; they are not seperate properties and the above is not a typo. You can also do it with JS, but AFAIK you're better off with the above. --Toby ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert Ludvik" <robert.ludvik@zd-lj.si> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2001 3:18 PM Subject: [PHP] pause > hi > i know i've noticed somewhere something about how to implement a Pause in PHP - > I mean, if ie.a user inputs a wrong number, the script says "Oh no, it's > wrong", waits a few seconds and redirects her back to input form. i know i could > say to him "hit a Back button...", just wondering if something lika Pause > exists. i've searched php.net and zend.com but found nothing useful. > thanks > Bobe > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > >
