So you have the refresh working on the frame? Did you try putting that same code in the main page (which holds the frame(s))?

Thats the thing, its on a free host thats got cloaking on , i just want to jump stright out of it and go to the new site but not by opening a new window , this can be done by using the _top target but i dont think you can use it for a redirect

If you have .htaccess privileges you can use it to redirect to where ever you like.

Example 1

Example 2

It redirects the whole page because the .htacess resides in your root folder of your website. I would bet that you do not have access to the .htacess because it is a free hosting company. It is worth a shot though.

Hmm, have you tried that just to see if it works? Probably not like you said, given the host wants their ads / name / etc abound. I'm not sure what they were - but there are some easy tricks to get around those, if you haven't found a solution already - I'll try to look when I get home.
