Refresh

Some sites (like this one) have a splash page that shows for a second or two before you are automatically taken to the main or core page for the site. It's a nice way to establish a tone (if your site needs to set a tone, that is).

To have a splash page you must first make it the default page for the particular site ("index.html" or whatever your server has defined as the default page in a directory). All you need to do is have one line of text inserted in the <HEAD> of your web page:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="2; URL=corepage.html">

...where the number after CONTENT=" determines how many seconds the browser should wait before going to the URL specified.
