The meta refresh tag would best suit your needs here.

but i not exactly what i need.

 

 

i need something like this:

 

 

first page----execute        --------------------secont page(wait 3 seconds)-----------------------third page

Surely on page 2 you can have the following.

 

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3;url=http://root/index.php?page=3">

 

This will then flash up page 2 for 3 seconds then pass the user onto page 3.

 

PHP executes the script. It is not a persistent connection which can count time. You can use this or javascript.

ok, 10x

I personally prefer this method:

 

header("Refresh: 3; url=page3.php"); // waits 3 seconds & sends to page3.php

 

You have to put this in your php script before any output to the browser. It will automatically forward the page in 3 seconds and cannot be disabled.
