RE: [PHP] Display a mesagge and redirect (newbie)

I recommend you to use javascript for this one. That way you can make sure that client sees the message exactly for time you've decided (like 3 seconds). So: a) Just do It b) Just do It c) JavaScript for this one, launched _after_ page has loaded completely (use <Body onLoad="script()"> -tag for that) d) Times up. location.href will take you where you want.
