Use case for redirects is similar. A set of static pages like an image gallery displaying in some kiosk. Using <meta http-equiv=refresh> you can at least allow the user to control the redirect (Firefox allows that now, I believe). Using JavaScript timers that would no longer be possible and the whole thing would become less accessible. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>Received on Tuesday, 7 August 2007 14:32:01 GMT
