Redirect after 5 seconds only if bolNeedToRedirect=True ?

[Jonathan]

I want to redirect a vb.net aspx page after 5 seconds only if a variable
bolNeedToRedire ct=True. This variable is determined after code sees whether
a person is logged in.

How could I achive this considering the header meta tag for redirecting
can't be switched based on a Boolean variable?

Thank you, Mark. That is indeed a good point.

Hello Jonathan, I am sorry that I made a mistake in <SCRIPT
LANGUAGE="JavaS cript">. This is a deprecated syntax as Mark said, and
please use
<script type="text/javascript"inst ead.

Thanks

Hello Jonathan,

"Delayed" page redirecting is a client side happening. Server side code is
not able to control when to redirect the page directly. It needs to write
some javascript code to client side, and let the client code finish the
redirecting.

The corresponding VB.NET code is:

Response.Write( "<script>redirT imer();</script>")

(remove the ';' in the end of the C# code line)
