HTML page with a timer?

Report · Jun 21, 2017

Hi,

I am trying to make a unique html page with no navigation. I have created a link to this page from my .index file and I want the html page to show for roughly 20 seconds and then jump back to the index page.

What is the best/easiest way to achieve this?

Thanks for your help!

This is probably the easiest way to achieve this.

I think this java script listed below is my best solution. Any idea how to apply a fade so it doesn't jump?

Thanks!

setTimeout(function(){

window.location.href = 'index.html';

}, 5000);

</script>

Unique is not always good for usability. This could be very frustrating for some people on slower connections.

It might be better to put everything on the same page. See live demo below.

Not sure if it will be unique.... this is a very old but simple method

Paste this meta refresh tag within the <head></head> tags in your HTML document.

Just change the seconds (I put "20" and the name of the file that you want it to refresh to (I typed in "index.html")

<head>

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="20;URL='index.html'">

</head>

hope that helps!
