   Dear Debbie and distiguished thread followers,

I've taken a look at your source code and all I see is this:

<META HTTP-EQUIV=Link CONTENT="http://www.fiu.edu/~deidel01">

Try this instead:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="10;
URL=http://www.fiu.edu/`deidel01">

Just make sure to change the 10 to the number of seconds you want
visitors to dote on the current page before moving on.

Note: the number of seconds you want people to wait only kicks in after
the page had COMPLETELY loaded.  Watch out for this.  I know people that
have tons of animated gifs on their first page and then set the delay
time to 30 secs. for people to jot down/change their bookmarks.  So
people have to wait like for the load time + the delay time to get moved
automatically (up to 2 minutes).

For an example of how this new refresh would look, go to

Hope this helps.
