I am trying to have a logout page where is displays a messages and then redirects to the login page. This is in ASP.net 2.0.

I have this in my Page_Load:

ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(typeof(Page), 'pageredirect', JavascriptRedirect() );

This is my redirect function:

private string JavascriptRedirect() {     StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();     sb.Append('<script type=\'text/javascript\' language=\'javascript\'>');     sb.Append('var x = 5;');     sb.Append('var y = 1;');     sb.Append('function startClock(){');     sb.Append('x = x-y;');     sb.Append('t=setTimeout(\'startClock()\', 1000);');     sb.Append('if(x==0){');     sb.Append('window.location='login.aspx';');     sb.Append('clearTimeout(t);');     sb.Append(' }');     sb.Append(' }');     sb.Append('startClock();');     sb.Append('</script>');     return sb.ToString(); }

When I test there is no javascript in my resulting logout page. Anyone have an idea on what is happening. Is Page_Load to late to register this?

  1. By the way: You don’t need Javascript to redirect the browser to a page after a certain amount of time. Just use a plain HTML meta Tag in your <HEAD> section.

    <meta http-equiv='refresh' content='5; URL=login.aspx'>

    The number stands for the time in seconds, the URL for the target.
