Hi Folks; Sorry to be bothering you with this question, but I've been looking for a solution to a condition related to your Client-Side Redirects Using HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" checkpoint 3.6. Here is my problem: I use HTTP-EQUIV refresh constantly to refresh a page for an internal company website. Since some of these users are half the world away, network delays/problems can cause the refresh to fail. Here is my question: what mechanism exists to give the client control over the failure to refresh? Preferably so that a JavaScript alert window could be opened to inform the client via pop-up window that the refresh has failed. Thanks for your time and my apologies if this question is inappropriate. Matthew E.
