I have forum v bulletin I need to redirect a visitor to example.php page .. automatically after a short delay,countdown  when he clicks the download attachment already upload at my server or external link posted in my forum . Is there any possible way to do that in a .htaccess (JavaScript) code or any thing ..

my site :  shneler.com/vb
example attachment URL : http://shneler.com/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=2063&d=1380201538

Thank you 

What about using a Javascript timeout?

$('#element').click(function() {
    setTimeout(function() {
        window.location.href = 'http://website.com';
    }, 3000);
});

it is not working

    $('#element').click(function() {
    setTimeout(function() {
    window.location.href = 'http://shneler.com/vb5test';
    }, 3000);
    });

not working .... is there any thig should i change and is this java for external link , attachment file uploaded in my server ?

put this in linked page

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url=http://example.com/">

redirect after 5 seconds .

a somewhat backwards approach maybe, to goto the example page and continue from there
current link to a particualar attachment may be
<a href='http://shneler.com/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=2063&d=1380201538'>something to download</a>

different link
<a href='http://shneler.com/vb5test?attachmentid=2063&d=1380201538'>something to download</a>

and in /vb5test/index.php in the <head> somewhere

<?php 
if(isset($_GET['attachmentid'])) { 
echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='5; url=/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=$_GET['attachmentid']&d=$_GET['d']'>"; 
} ?>

plwase note
redirect to blank page see attached please

see attachment

the product

You cannot edit VB files like that, thats why they create plugins and templates to create something as you want. try asking product maker to edit file as you want

You didn't think to write, in the original question,
that you were f_ing with a functional system with some 'hack',
(badly) coded by some f_wit, to hide your referer.
the hack f_s up the system,
get the fix from the f_wit that wrote the hack, or,
remove the hack

there is one reason to hide the referer; malice. are you? :)

edit: read the source: badly written?;bohze moi,
so much wrong
there are vb anonymizers, that do work, try another
