Code that automatically redirects a visitor after they click anywhere on the page?

Sep 5, 2011, 05:55 PM

I'm looking for code which does the following:

When a visitor visits my website and clicks anywhere on the page, (regardless of where the mouse clicks) it will automatically redirect him to another site.

I think an event listener might be a solution, but I'm not sure.

Thanks a lot for any help on this

If possible, I would like there to be a 2 second time delay before it does the redirection.

Code:

<body onclick = "redirect()"> CLICK ANYWHERE ON THE PAGE TO REDIRECT AFTER 2 SECONDS <script type = "text/javascript"> function redirect() { setTimeout('window.location = "http://www.google.com"', 2000); } </script>
