Hello Anyone!

I found a script as load a page pictures, backgroundsound, text etc with a loading message "Page loading ... Please wait" but when it´s done the page will be hidden. I wish to edit the script so when the page is loaded it will go to another page (link) like http://www.altavista.com (for example). The script is below.

<HEAD>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Begin
function loadImages() {
if (document.getElementById) { // DOM3 = IE5, NS6
document.getElementById('hidepage').style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
else {
if (document.layers) { // Netscape 4
document.hidepage.visibility = 'hidden';
}
else { // IE 4
document.all.hidepage.style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
}
}
// End -->
</script>


</HEAD>

<BODY OnLoad="loadImages()">

<div id="hidepage" style="position: absolute; left:5px; top:5px; background-color: #FFFFCC; layer-background-color: #FFFFCC; height: 100%; width: 100%;">

<table width=100%><tr><td>Page loading ... Please wait.</td></tr></table></div>

You could go with the following in the opening BODY tag


<BODY onload="location='http://www.altavista.com'">
