2 Questions.<br />
<br />
1.Iv been having a problem trying to figure out how the META tag works or if its even a meta tag to have a page redirect to another after a certain amount of time. Iv heard about 2 different ways that didnt work to do this.<br />
What im trying to do is have a link goto one page, then, after X seconds, goto another page. Whats the tag for this?<br />
<br />
2.Im trying to have a link open a new window for another page. How would I go about doing this?<br />
<br />
Thanks.<!--content--><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10;url=http://www.someplace.com/"> <br />

After a specified amount of time, the browser window will REFRESH itself and link over to a given URL. Put this into the page that will change in the HEAD area of the coding.<br />
<br />
Your second request is to add a TARGET to your link tag.<br />

This however is not working. All that happens is i get the black background as was the shockwave was designed to do but it just loads and loads and loads from the page and do nothing more but be a black box sitting there. I right click the box and it tells me a couple things. One is that its flash player 4. The other is that the movie "is not loaded" yet. The shockwaveflash movie was created with the flashtyper online flash generator located at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://boards.flashkit.com">http://boards.flashkit.com</a><!-- m --><br />

Im using the same code they tell you to insert into my webpage. It loads just fine off the desktop when you get the preview.html and the flashkitte.swf file. But when i copy the text and insert it on the webpage and upload the swf file into the file manager, it begins to load the swf movie but nothing happens beyond that. It keeps loading something that isnt there. Ill just get a black screen.<br />
I changed the target so that it would find the file but it never seems to load.<br />
