This isn't really a POE question, but I'll answer it.

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/global.html#edef-META
-----
Some user agents support the use of meta to refresh the current page after
a specified number of seconds, with the option of replacing it by a
different URI.
Authors should not use this technique to forward users to different
pages, as this
makes the page inaccessible to some users. Instead, automatic page
forwarding should
be done using server-side redirects.
----- 

Use a Location: header and a 302 status to redirect the browser.
