Dear all,
When a servlet is called (says, servlet A), and I want to redirect to another html file or servlet file, I will use response.sendRedirect("URL"). However, what I want now is I want to display a page (says, Page B)giving some message to users and redirect with time delay, says, 3 seconds, to another page (says, Page C) for other actions. What should I do in servlet A to achieve the purpose. Page A and Page B can be html files or codes generated by servlet.
Regards,
Joe

The following can be used. This example will load google after 10 seconds.
response.setHeader("Refresh", "10; URL=http://www.google.com")
