Can someone post a snippet of html that correctly accomplishes a

<META> tags are the answer you're looking for - for a real redirect,
though:

The important bits are in the headers - you need to convince your
Apache to send those, ideally.

Anyone else find it ironic that after more than a year of Microsoft
trying to move hotmail to NT, it still isn't?

(...) I hate it when people do it that way, especially when they make a delay of zero; makes it annoying to try and go back. (25 years ago, 5-Jan-00, to lugnet.publish)
