Question

I have a WordPress site which I am calling a URL from a custom field using the following

<?php $redirect_url = get_post_meta($post->ID, 're_url', true);

I am also using TinyBox2 to display this URL in a popup box, using the callback function I have set it to run a function in the footer that redirects to, for now, http://www.google.com

TinyBox
-------
<div class="redirect" onclick="TINY.box.show({html:'Your website is : <br /><?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 're_url', true); ?>',animate:true,close:true,mask:false,boxid:'success',openjs:function(){openJS()}})"></li>

Footer
------
<script type="text/javascript">
    function openJS(){setTimeout("top.location.href = '$redirect_url'",5000);}
</script<

This isnt working as I want it to, can anybody explain where I am going wrong?

Answer 1

You need to write php variable, so that javascript can pick it up!!

function openJS(){setTimeout("top.location.href = '<?php echo $redirect_url; ?>'",5000);}
