Hi, E.

I think the w3-proposal is better, because something like: <meta http_equiv="REFRESH" content="3; URL=bla"> is not logic. why not <meta http_equiv="REFRESH" URL="bla" content="3"> and: if we have URL - what else could we get? (in final state something like: <meta http_equiv="REFRESH" URL="url" content="3" title="text" popup-text="We are changing location" text="color" blink> did I miss a possibility?) In this way: content="number,URL" is clear and simple. I hope Netscape and IE will see this too and change it in the next browser-versions. neko -- neko@greenie.muc.de Simone Demmel Muenchen (Germany) Fax.: 089/354 59 80 http://greenie.muc.de/~neko/
