A page that automatically changes to next.

Among the page transitions in frontpage 2003, I don't seem to find one that
advance to next page after, say, 5 seconds. Is there such a thing?

You could try this in the <head> section
<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url=../index.html">
</head>

The file after url= is of your own choosing.

Or do you mean that you want to keep advancing through several pages. If so,
you would have to place this code in every page with the next page to load
after url= . That is a different url in each page.

Thanks, Trevor. It seems to work at least once but then works sporadically
thereafter. I will play with the other functions to eliminate any
interactions.

Hmmm!

Are you in fact trying to advance through several pages, each 5 seconds
apart?

If so, it may be that 5 seconds isntl enough to completely load each new
page

BTW, I am no expert, so others may have some more ideas.

For some reason it seems to be working fine now. You can see it at

John,

Yes, it works perfectly.

BTW, I don't think you need to use 'url=index-home.html#top of page' (my
quotes) in the <meta> tag in your home page.
'url=index-home.html' (without quotes) is sufficient because you will
automatically go to the top of the new page

In fact, in index-home.html, you also don't need <a
href="index-home.html#top of page">
<a href="#top"> is sufficient.
(This works because #top is known to the system and the page is assumed to
be the current page.)

Similarly, instead of <a href="POB-memo.html#top of page"> , <a
href="POB-memo.html"> is sufficient )as you have used elsewhere in
index-home.html).

PS My wife and I like the W.S. Churchill quote, even though there has ben
some discussion here saying he was a racist (religionist?).
