HI,

is it possible to redirect the site after an Error 404 with a time delay of between 5-10 seconds.

You can use this on the 404 page:

<meta http-equiv = "refresh" content = "2; url = http://calendarforum.dk/" />

The content = 2 will redirect after 2 seconds.

You could make the setting to 10, and then also on the page a "button" for immediate direct.

Here I have a very old example of redirection when trying to acces a restricted page. Made in X5 ver 11

Try clicking on the "page 52" or the "area 1"

When you are on the "redirection page" you can click CTRL+U.

This will open a tab with the source, where you are able to see the source for the redirection and for the "go now" and the "go back".

The "go now" will immediately redirect.

The "go back" will bring the user back to where he came from when he made the "call" that lead to the "redirection page".

Just in case :

You specify your 404 page here :

The code needed, ( the meta... eventually the "go now" and "go back" ) you put in one or more html-object(s)
