Redirecting

[arrangements]

I've run through this my head many times and I cannot find a simple solution.

I want to have this sort of redirect page that will redirect after a certain amount time, say 3 seconds, and in the direct page I want to display a message based on the previous page's message.

For example I have a profile page and users can edit their profile. When they click submit I want them to be directed to a page that tells them to wait 3 seconds and tell them their profile has been updated.

Maybe this will help what i'm faced up against:

...Snip of code...
if(something)
{
$success[] = You've done something correct;

... Now I need to redirect to the redirect page to display this message ...
}

You could use meta tags on your page.

//All previous code UPDATE etc............
$query = "UPDATE ....................";
mysql_query($query);

echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='3; URL=http://yoursite.com/updatedpage.php'>";
  <!-- refreshing rate = 3 seconds  --> 

then on your updatedpage.php display the required message,
