delay before redirect
Hi,
is it possible to set a delay before a redirect ?
I'd like to do that in order to display a result page for 5 seconds and
then go to the welcome page.
I am already using an http-equiv="refresh" with a 300 seconds delay for
the whole page but I want to bypass it with a redirection after 5 seconds.
thanks,
ionel

Ok, so add a small script in the body of your page that does it's own (e.g.
overrides) the meta refresh.
Here's what I mean (change to your liking):
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Page</title>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="300;
URL='javascript:location.reload()'">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<script>
setTimeout("window.location='?'",5000)
</script>
</body>
</html>

I already have a <META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="300;
URL="javascript:location.reload()"> from the Tiles template.
I am only overriding the body frame for each vue. As the meta equiv
should be placed inside the head tag, I have no way to alter it.

So what's stopping you from putting this
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="5; URL="<html:rewrite
forward="someGlobalForward"/>/">
...in the head section of the page?
"someGlobalForward" would obviously be a global forward that is the entry
point into the application or as you put it "app root" and might just be
"/index.jsp".

- the user asks for an edit page.
- a form is displayed.
- when the form is filled the user clicks on the validate button.
- action is called and a server side computation is done.
- when the computation is completed, a page display a success or failure
message to the user
- on success, the main page should be displayed after 5 seconds
my problem is the whole site uses a tiles template with a autorefresh
set to 5 minutes (meta refresh URL is javascript:location.reload())
I would like to override this so the success page is only displayed for
5 seconds and the URL to be the app root.
thanks,
ionel

What's the use case here? What are you trying to do with your app?

Hi James,
Thanks for the reply.
Can I had another refresh equiv in addition to the first ? (I would then
get two meta refresh, one set at 5 minutes and one at 5 seconds)
The first meta refresh is hard coded in the tiles template I use for my
pages that's why I am looking for something to override it.
BTW, I don't think Filip is a french talker (he is the one who asked
about your 2-cent bet) ;-)
thanks,
ionel

C'est une énonciation commune. En donnant un rapport qui est seulement de
mon propre avis, je donne ma valeur de 2 cents à la matière.

I would suggest staying with the meta tag approach. This lessens the burden
on the container and let's them (basically) poll your app in the case where
they are waiting for some asynchronous process to complete.
Just my $.02
