Is there one in php??? No doubt there's plenty of options... here's what I'm using: I have the following function in one of my standard function libraries: function redirect($url, $timeout) { echo "<meta http-equiv=\"Refresh\" content=\"$timeout; url=$url\">"; } $url being where you want to redirect to and $timeout being the delay before the redirection takes place (set it to 0 for immediate redirect). Then when I want to do a redirection on a page I just use this: redirect("http://www.some.place.else/", "5"); I've found this particularly useful in situations where you want to let people know you're doing a redirection somewhere or want to display some sort of message before the redirection takes place. No doubt there's other solutions, there usually is.
