Redirecting to page after a specified time

Posted 06 April 2013 - 12:39 PM

Based on the example I saw here :
http://stackoverflow...-specified-time

I'm trying to redirect to another page after a second has passed. (I am starting to count when the document has loaded).
I cannot seem to spot the problem in this code, any help you could give me would be appreciated :

<body>
    <p>Login Failed!</p>
    <p>Redirecting you back to the login screen.</p> 
    <p>Reason: Incorrect Password or Username.</p>
    <script src="http://ajax.microsoft.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.5.js" type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
        var delay = 1000; //Your delay in milliseconds
        setTimeout(function(){ window.location.href = "LoginPage.cshtml"; }, delay);
        });
    </script>
</body>


Is This A Good Question/Topic? 0

Try this.

<html>
  <head>
    <script src="http://ajax.microsoft.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.5.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
        var delay = 1000; //Your delay in milliseconds
        setTimeout(function(){ window.location.href = "LoginPage.cshtml"; }, delay);
        });
    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <p>Login Failed!</p>
    <p>Redirecting you back to the login screen.</p> 
    <p>Reason: Incorrect Password or Username.</p>
  </body>
</html>

Could just put the setTimeout at the bottom of the page, before the closing body tag, and not bother with jQuery.
