Jump to PostNot sure exactly what you are asking, but in PHP redirection can be done as follows:
<?php header("Location:http://www.somesite.com"); ?>and Meta:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url=

thanks for the reply. basically i have a php file but when i include html tags the redirect doesnt work. what should i do to make it work .
should i create .html file and have html tags then redirect using php or this php file is fine.......
You can either echo the HTML tags echo "<some_tag>html</some_tag>"; If you do this the remember to escape your quotes with \s
Or another way:
<?php
// Some PHP code
?>
some HTML code
<?php
// Some more PHP code
?>
when i include html tags the redirect doesnt work
Very true. You can't send header information (thats where you're redirecting) after outputting anything. All you could do is put your meta tags after the redirection code. That would be useless though, because your program will never get to this point.
