"This code"? Please learn to post to Usenet. You're supposed to start
the message by telling what you are referring to. You're supposed to
post a URL if you have a specific page that you have a problem with.
Besides, meta refresh was never guaranteed to work, and has often been
advised against.

You're on a wrong track. Please don't try to write some discussion forum
software before you have a fairly good idea of how the Web works.
Instead, use existing software to set up a forum. Better still, join
someone else's forum. There's no shortage of discussion forums that were
born dead and remain dead.

It's a fairly good way to tell that the author of the page has no clue
on creating discussion forums.
