# Redirecting Form Pages

Use redirect scripts to send form visitors from a Slate-hosted page to another page or an external URL. You can redirect from a confirmation page after form submission, or redirect when someone first opens the form.

## Redirecting from a confirmation page to an external URL

To redirect visitors from a Slate-hosted confirmation page to an external URL:

1. Go to **Forms**.
2. Select the form that should contain the redirect, or create a new one.
3. Select **Edit Communications**.
4. Select **Edit Mailing** for the confirmation page communication.
5. Select **Edit Message**.
6. Select **Source** in the editor toolbar to open the source code view.
7. Enter one of the following redirect scripts immediately after the `&lt;head&gt;` tag in the form's source content:
  - Redirect after a delay, showing the original page for the length of time you specify:

```xml
<script type="text/javascript">
    var delay = 5000;
    setTimeout(function(){window.location = 'https://www.your-url.com'; }, delay);
</script>
```
  - Redirect immediately, with no delay:

```xml
<script type="text/javascript">
    var delay = 0; 
    setTimeout(function(){ window.location = 'https://www.your-url.com'; }, delay);
</script>
```
8. Select **OK**.
9. Select **Save**.

## Redirecting to another page when opening a form

To redirect visitors to another page when they first open the form:

1. Go to **Forms**.
2. Select the form that should contain the redirect, or create a new one.
3. Select **Edit** to open the **Edit Form** pop-up.
4. Select the **Description** tab.
5. Select **Source** in the editor toolbar to open the source code view.
6. Enter one of the redirect scripts from the previous section immediately after the `&lt;head&gt;` tag in the form's source content.
7. Select **OK**.
8. Select **Save**.
