Doing the classic meta refresh, even with today’s fancy server side and JavaScript tricks, is one of the most reliable and easy ways to transfer a user from one page to another across all browsers. In fact, I used it just today when I needed to redirect users to a special Internet Explorer 6 version of a particular page.
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url=home/classic/" />
The URL should obviously be set to the location that you want to user to be redirected to.
As I mentioned needing to redirect Internet Explorer 6 users, I can wrap them in Internet Explorer conditional comments to redirect those visitors only.
<!--[if IE 6}>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url=home/classic/" />
<![endif]-->
Happy refreshing.
