AUTODOWNLOAD a FILE

Hi guys,

I have a situation that’s beating the heck out of me :slight_smile:

I have a page named “thankyou.html”, this appears after my visitors would sign up the subscribers page.
Once inside “thankyou.html” page, I placed a REFRESH META TAG that would go to a PHP page after 10seconds that automatically downloads a certain PDF document.

<meta http-equiv=“refresh” content=“10;URL=dl.php”>

So the basic idea is, SUBSCRIBE, THANK YOU PAGE, BEGIN DOWNLOAD…

Is there a better way of doing this? Cause I am having doubts about the META REFRESH TAG every 10SECS

thank you
