FrontPage How To

Page Redirection timers for Splash Pages
By David Pfeiffer of FrontLook.com

Splash Pages can act as a doorway to your web site, providing fun ways to highlight the latest news or just entertain your viewers. What is the old saying, First Impressions...


FrontLook FX Winter Splash Page

It is common to provide the user a doorway link and a automatic redirection to your home page after a couple of seconds. This done using the Refresh System Meta tag.

Bring up the Splash page in FrontPage and right click on the page and select the Page Properties menu item. Then select the Custom tab.


Page Properties Dialog

Press the System Variables "Add..." button. 


System Meta Variable Dialog

Now Add the following to the System-Meta Variable Dialog and press the OK button.:

Name: Refresh
Value: 10;URL=index.htm

Where:

"10" is the number of seconds to wait before proceeding to the URL. Replace the number "10" with the delay seconds.

"URL=index.htm" is the URL loading in the browser after the specified time. Replace the "index.htm" with your Home URL. This URL can be a relative URL such as ../splashpages/winter.htm or an absolute URL such as http://www.frontlook.com/fx/winter/index.htm.

The browser's refresh capability is great way to redirect user to different pages or keep content fresh.
