Talk:Meta refresh

message: I pasted exactly that code in my page, and it didn't work. I had to delete the first " mark before the page name, and then it worked. Am I alone in this?
:No, that's a typo.  I'm correcting it now.
I added much more information on redirects and refreshs into URL_redirection.  Maybe we can replace this page by a link to the lolsponding section there? Yaakov Belch 15:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I believe this article would be greatly enhanced by directly embedding an actual meta refresh into the entry itself.  Say, 2 seconds.  Refresh...refresh...refresh... ;D  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.182.239.80 (talk) 13:54, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I checked the reference and that site says the refreshing causes concerns about security, not the re-directing. In my opinion, both would to someone who isn't very web-savvy so should it be changed or not? Hintswen  Talk | Contribs  23:31, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  redirect doesn't cause concerns about security 

message: From the intro: "this method is deprecated and should not be used". It's not clear whether this refers to using any 'meta refresh' or just to using it for redirection.

thread_title:  Ambiguous statement about being 'deprecated' 

message: "Meta refresh" ist eine veraltete Methode die einen Web-Browser anweist die aktuelle Webseite oder den Frame nach einem bestimmten Zeitintervall zu aktualisieren. Die Aktualisierung wird durch HTML meta element mit zwei Parametern "http-equiv"(gesetzt auf "refresh") und "content" (Zeitintervall in sec) definiert.  Es ist auch möglich den Browser zu instruieren die andere URL abzurufen indem die alternative URL in das "content" Parameter integriert wird. Durch die Einstellung der Refresh-Zeit-Intervall auf null (oder ein sehr niedriger Wert) kann die "Meta refresh" Methode für die URL – Umleitung benutzt werden.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.29.40.11 (talk) 09:32, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

message: The last paragraph under "History" reads:
:While this feature has not ever been standardized, it is supported by default in almost all later web browsers.
However, its reference pointing to https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20180524163908/https://iconewsblog.org.uk/2015/09/16/does-your-website-have-a-leak/ does not mention `refresh` anywhere - it only mentions `referrer`.
I added the Failed Verification template; since the reference does not talk about refresh at all (and is therefore off-topic), Wikipedia recommends to delete the reference entirely and to replace it with citation needed; although since this is my first edit on Wikipedia, I do not want to take such a decision without talking about it first.

replies: text: Looks like it is standardised now in the HTML Living Standard, although I couldn't see a record of when that happened. I'll remove the paragraph for now — a note on its standardisation can be added later if anyone wants to. Liam McM 21:33, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
