Oh! that one... yes I remember when (circa 1998) I went through our old web sites and removed all these redirects (very bad strategy from a CMS point of view, a nightmare in fact) and I put all the redirects into a single matrix file with a Rev cgi to drive 404's to other pages. (I still use it today... very sweet and easy to maintain and fast)

But I can see the utility here. No sure if there are pros or cons to using this vs Javascript. One could add a button on the interface to post "run" to the iRev page and then the iRev page would start inserting this into the head... with the URL for the next slide updated on each round. If the user clicks a "stop" button then the iRev page removes this from the head and reverts to manual drive buttons....

I'll try it. Thanks!



you can do the automatic advance in html using the REFRESH meta
tag<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_refresh>

I've built photo galleries around a lot of html pages and refresh tags.

Depreciated by the W3C for redirects, but works like a champ for this
purpose.

Place inside <head> to refresh page after 5 seconds:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5" />

Redirect to http://example.com/ after 5 seconds:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;url=http://example.com/"; />

Redirect to http://example.com/ immediately:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://example.com/"; />.

while waiting for the plug-in to settle down ( I can't deploy revlets until
the update function is working)


Now, I'm wondering if there is a way to make this thing drive itself, so
the user does not have to click the next button, using iRev code.
