HTML Code for Redirection

Abhinav Kaiser | May 06, 2007 | 0 comments

I was working on a project last week and I wanted to redirect one website to another. Although I have designed quite a few websites, it was hard for me to recollect the syntax for redirection. So, I am just posting it on my website as an easy reference for next time and also for Tech Pedia readers.

<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://technopedia.info/tech">

This code should go between <head> and </head>. The content which is “0″ in this case is the time in seconds for redirection to happen. If the content is set to “5″, redirection takes place after 5 seconds and so on and so forth.

Note: For this webpage, the body section is not necessary.

So, the HTML file looks like this:

<html>

<head>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://technopedia.info/tech">
</head>

</html>

It’s simple but hard to remember.
