    Sounds like a meta tag you want? Look at the source on my webpage (before it redirects). I can't remember how to do it, I just stole the code from somewhere else

    <META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="25;url=index.asp">

    that will do it, the 25 is the number of seconds before changing, and the url=index.asp, is the url of the page you want to go to next

    the meta refresh tag may be what you're looking for... it refreshes the browser window at a specified url after a specified time delay.

    Go to http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/head/meta.html and scroll to the bottom for more info.

    this works in asp. (maybe not what you're looking for but someone might find it useful)

    <script language="vbscript">
    ' CLIENT FUNCTIONS
    Function ReDirectTo()
    url = "PageToRedirectTo.asp"
    window.navigate(url)
    End Function
    </script>

    <body onload="SetInterval 'ReDirectTo', 5000" language="vbscript">

    5000 = 5 seconds
