How to Redirect a Web Page in HTML

How to redirect to another URL

The simplest way to redirect to another URL is to use an

HTML <meta>

tag with the http-equivparameter set to “refresh”. The

content

attribute sets the delay before the browser redirects theuser to the new web page. To redirect immediately, set this parameter to “0” seconds for the

content

attribute.

If you want your redirection to occur in an exact time, just specify your preferred parameter (inseconds) for the

content

. Let’s consider an example, where we set "7" seconds as redirection time.

Some browsers don't render the <meta> refresh tag correctly, so before the next page loads,the user can see a fl ash as a page.

Some old browsers don't refresh correctly when you add a quick link. In that case, you can add an

anchor

link to let the user follow.

Helping make your saved books for useful.

I am changing my Celtic-Druidical scanned Books storage outside of Calibre to be more useful for study, etc.

In the main storage directory. Each book will have its own subdirectory and book title (subdirectory name will be prefixed with a book or MSS earliest publication date, Postfixed with Dwc-xx ( the number of times the word Druid shows up in the text).

Inside the subdirectory of course will be the PFD and sometimes the Epub version. As I use them there will be a Word or note fill for my notes on the book.

Perhaps a sub-subdirectories for captured images, and extracted other things like Poems. This will be useful for perhaps other works in the future.

Extracting images from a PDF file.

I use two programs from here. The main Libray program to convert a PDF in the library to an Ebook. hen I export the Ebook out of the library to my drive and then open it with the Calibre Ebook editor what was par of the download.

Then looking on left hand side is a list of all the elements in the ebook. Toward the bottom is all the images. Highlite the one you want or all of them, right hand click and follow export instructions. Bingo.

Q: Factoids or Believetoids?

Factoids or Believetoids?

Several years ago I keep noticing how modern articles and books about the Druids of ancient times keep having common factoids or

beliefs of the Druids and practices and lifestyles.

Yet all references, if any were circular to recent modern books quoting each other.

So I started breaking down these common statements or claims, and trying to find their original or oldest published (and translated into Engish) sources. This was not an easy task but an enlighting one.

Along the way, I peeked into citation software but did not settle on any. As many of these factiods/belieftoids may be found in any given book or MMS. I need to master using a citation system.

And also a better way to index and publish these factoids/belieftoids. 

I believe this would be of value to all students of Greater Druidia.

Any thoughts, suggestions, references, or help, are greatly appreciated.

R: Database of religious history

The DRH began as one of the flagship initiatives of the Cultural Evolution of Religion Research Consortium (CERC), based at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. It now continues as an independent academic initiative, based at UBC but involving partners and collaborators from all over the world.

It is intended as a platform for unprecedented academic collaboration, reflecting a commitment to rigorous, scholarly standards and a deep appreciation for interdisciplinary work in the sciences and humanities.

Accessible, centralized clearing house for historical data

The DRH is designed to serve as a centralized clearinghouse for scholarly knowledge of the historical record, bringing together a core of quantified, standardized data with qualitative comments, references to crucial resources, and links to on-line text and image databases.

The pace of scholarly production concerning the religious historical record has increased rapidly over the past decades, making it difficult for scholars maintain a comprehensive overview of new monographs, journals and on-line resources. The DRH aims to respond to the problem of information overload by creating a core of standardized, searchable, visualizable knowledge surrounded by rich qualitative comments, references and links to otherwise scattered and hard to find on-line repositories of texts and images.

Quality scholarly opinion on historical traditions

For scholars, researchers, teachers and the general public, the DRH will function as a gateway to reliable, comprehensive knowledge concerning the history of religions around the world, and cultural history more generally.

Unlike Wikipedia, entries in the DRH will be authored only by academic scholars, ensuring that the task of converting thick, qualitative knowledge into quantitative knowledge, and the directing of users to qualitative resources, is performed by those best qualified to do so. Powerful, built-in analytic and data visualization tools will allow this knowledge to be accessed in entirely new and intuitive ways, with a host of research and pedagogical applications. For those interested in analyzing quantitatively the relationship between religion and other historical variables, the DRH will provide the gold-standard of expert-sourced data. Although we are currently focusing on religious groups, future polls will expand the scope of the DRH to include political, economic, technological and ecological variables.

Assess the validity of scholarly generalizations

Scholars can quickly and efficiently check their intuitions concerning the temporal or spatial distribution of particular beliefs or practices against the historical record.

Among other things, the DRH will allow scholars to quickly and efficiently check their intuitions concerning the temporal or spatial distribution of particular beliefs or practices against the historical record, objectively assess the validity of scholarly constructs such as “shamanism” or “Confucianism,” and produce thought-provoking visualizations of the spread or interactions of religious variables for both teaching and research purposes. These are only some of the potential uses to which the DRH can be put; as its number of users grows, we hope that the DRH will come to be used in all sorts of novel, completely unanticipated ways.

Connect with other scholarly experts

For the broader historical community, the DRH will function as a venue for documenting differences in scholarly opinion, as well as providing a discussion forum for exploring the sources of expert disagreement.

We encourage contributors to note in their comments points where scholarly disagreement exists. The DRH is also unique in not forcing a single consensus document on any given entry: it is designed so that alternative answers to the same questions coexist side-by-side in the database, providing an instant snapshot of the state of scholarly agreement on particular topics. Our new “challenge” feature allows experts to disagree with any given answer discovered while browsing by providing an alternative answer. The flexible architecture of the DRH will also allow scholars to organize and share their own archives of texts or images, making them easily accessible to the larger scholarly community.
