Hi all,

I am very curious to know how I can create this sort of redirect page.

http://www.trivago.co.uk

Trivago, a travel site if you click on any of the view deals you get what I mean as the consumer is redirected through a small filler page which says we are loading the page and has a loading bar e.t.c

I want to develop the same for my website, but just don't know how.

Any ideas?

    This is one way to make this sort of thing.
    When a link is clicked some javascript will be called to open a new window and display your message / 'loading bar' animation. You can use a timer to keep this loading page showing for as long as you want then just redirect to the original URL of the link.

        Indeed, in the UK a telephone / ISP provider called TalkTalk still use this tactic to upsell services.

        When you login to your account it show a loading bar with an upsell above it.

        They tell you to 'please wait while we load your account details'.

        More like just wait here and look at this upsell for 10 seconds.
