hi may i know wat is the different between

 

 
  header
   ('Refresh:2;url=placebet3.php');

   header
   ('location;url=placebet3.php');

<META HTTP-EQUIV='refresh' content='0;URL=http://PAGE YOU NEED TO REFRESG.com'>

meta is done by the browser and the header is done by the server before it even gets to the browser.

 

I NEVER use meta redirects - you could already have sent a packet of info you didn't want to - the client COULD disable the redirect and view what you had sent.

 

some search engines don't like meta redirects if they encounter them.
