Use a 'javascript' refresh.
One reason why, if a user hits cancel, the meta refresh gets canceled, while a javascript/one doesn't if you just call your function without using any events like so
<script language=javascript>
<!--//
var counter=1000;
var urla="http://pathto/logout.cgi";
function stoperror(){ return true; }
window.onerror=stoperror;
function countdown()
{
if(counter==0)
{ window.location=urla; }
counter--;
setTimeout("countdown();",995);
}
countdown();
//-->
</script>

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
