Your suggestions are very helpful.

I made some minor changes to suit my websites that are built with NetObjects Fusion:
- There's no need to reference the CSS page since NoF does that automatically. I simply created another web page with the correct layout;
- On the page, I created a text box with a note about the redirection and reminder to update favorites or other URLs;
- NoF doesn't let me alter the <BODY> tag so instead I used the <script> and </script> tags to call the Javascript onload function, inserting this chunk of HTML into the text box using NoF's "Text -> Insert HTML" menu functions;
- I added the Javascript and HTML redirect code to the page header area using NoF's "HTML Source" tab;
- I reduced the time from 10 to 5 seconds, and even that is too long for quick readers!;
- I marked the page 'Exclude from navigation' in NoF's site view so that it does not appear on the site menus.

Granted it might have been easier to create the entire page from scratch in Notepad but doing it in NoF means it is readily maintained in NoF alongside all the rest of the website.

Many thanks for your excellent advice in the first place.
