Attribute for
<META ...> HTTP-EQUIV HTTP-EQUIV CONTENT Was that confusing? Ok, let's start from the beginning. Whenever a web server sends a web page it also sends an additional set of information about the page called headers.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2001 15:54:22 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.14 (Unix) ApacheJServ/1.1.2 Mod_dtcl 0.6.4 PHP/3.0.18 Last-Modified: Fri, 22 Jun 2001 00:28:46 GMT ETag: "75f87-200-3b32913e" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 512 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html
The purpose of

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="5">
