Refresh apage using php

Anon

Following is the php code on my result.php page which takes back to home page.

print ("<a href=\"http://www.torricelliforsenate.com/\">Click here to go back to home page</a>");

Is there a way to "refresh" the result.php, after few seconds....

thanks..

put this in the <HEAD> of your page, substitiute 10 with however many seconds you want to wait until it refreshes

I do not have a <head>,<body> tags in my php form

Thanks,

I would use

print("<meta name=refresh content=\"10; url=http://www.torricelliforsenate.com\">");

It works without the <head> tag. Although it may violate some standard.

this is not PHP, it is an HTML tag. On your form processing page put the normal , <head> and <body> tags in and put <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3; url=http://www.torricelliforsenate.com"> inside your <head> tags. You can put your PHP form processing stuff (<??>) before your opening tag. If you want users to see something before the redirect put it in the <body> tags.

thanks rodney,

the sesult page does not refresh after 10 sec...it does not recognise the tag..

below is the code in my "result.php":

<?php

if ($name1) {
$nm = implode(", ",$name1);
}
$other = false;

$to = "yamuna@thruport.com";

$subject = "Form Submitted";
$message .= "<table width=\"600\">
<tr>
<td class=\"content\">Options:</td>
<td class=\"content\">$nm</td>
</tr>

          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>First Name:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$First</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>Middle Initial:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$MI</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>Last Name:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$Last</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>Address:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$Address</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>Address 2:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$Address2</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>City:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$City</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>county:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$county</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>Phone1:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$Phone1</td>
          </tr>
           <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>Phone2:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$Phone2</td>
          </tr>
           <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>Fax:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\">$Fax</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
             <td class=\"content\"><font color=\"ff6600\"><b>EMail:</b></font></td>
             <td class=\"content\"><a href=\"mailto:$Email\"><font color=\"#ff6600\">$Email</a></td>
          </tr>
         </table>";

$headers= "From: $First $Last <$Email>\n";
$headers .="Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$headers .= "Mime-Version: 1.0\n";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers) or print "Could not send Mail";
$message = str_replace("\n"," ",$message);

print ("Thank You....Your message is sent out");

print ("<a href=\"http://www.torricelliforsenate.com/\">Click here to go back to home page</a>");

print ("<meta name=refresh content=\"10; url=http://www.torricelliforsenate.com\">");

Thanks in advance
