Redirect with a Timer

/ Published in: JavaScript

You can use JavaScript window.location to redirect a visitor to a required page. You may have seen this feature used by sites with full page ads, or to redirect visitors to the site's new domain name. You can add also a timer to the script that will allow the page to redirect and the visitors will not need to click a link or type in the new URL.

    if(count > 0){
        count--;
        timer.innerHTML = "This page will redirect in "+count+" seconds.";
        setTimeout("countDown()", 1000);
    }else{
        window.location.href = redirect;
