The trick, generally, is not to have to. I dare say that if you have to redirect deep in code, you're likely doing something wrong. Presenting a link or button for the next page is going to save you some hassle, I'm willing to bet. You may be able to use a META tag to do what you're trying to do. <META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="5; URL=http://www.page.com/page.html"> <-- ripped shamelessly from htmlgoodies.com (http://htmlgoodies.earthweb.com/tutors/dynamic5.html) -- O.
