Hello, all. Here's a good one. 
I have a PHP script embedded in a web page whose function is to insert
some data and then open an interface page where the user may see the
results of his insert.
I would like to close the page containing the script after the interface
page opens, and I'm running into a bit of a problem.
Essentially, my code (after PHP generation) appears as follows:
<meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="0;url=javascript:void(window.open('../employer.php?BEACON_ID=8','',''));">
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=javascript:window.close();">
With both pieces of code, the script page stays open after the interface
page has opened.
Am I doing something wrong? Is it possible that there can be only one
meta http-equiv tag in an HTML document?
Also, I have been scolded (on this very newsgroup, no less) for using
"javascript:" before my functions. While I think I understand why such
a thing is unnecessary, neither of those pieces of code work when I
remove it.
Help would be much appreciated.
Fond regards,
Eric B Venet
