    why redirec just reloading itself???

    I want to redirect from an HTML file to a PHP script (to conserve a past
    link published elsewhere). What I'm doing is like:

    (file oldfile.html)
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv=refresh
    content="3; project.php">
    <title>HTML redirection</title>
    </head>

    <body>
    <h1>HTML redirection</h1>
    <p align="center">
    Please wait while you are redirected to the new site
    or click <a href="project.p hp">here</a>
    </p>
    </body>
    </html>

    The redirection just causes this same file (oldfile.html) to reload, and not
    to load the project.php file. WHY? If I click the link, that works, but of
    course I want the redirection to just take me to project.php automatically
    and all it does is just constantly reload itself every 3 seconds. I must be
    missing something here, but I can't see what it is...

      becase it should say;
      <META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="3; URL=project.php ">

          Good grief - I forgot the 'URL='. I was typing from an example I found on
          the web and I just missed typing that in. I am such a moron. I am hopeless.
          Why do I even go on???

          thanks,
          dg
