Java - wait?

Hi,

I want my program to wait for 10 seconds before redirecting to a page. I've tried using a thread, but no luck. Any ideas?

Thread.sleep(long millis).

Code:

long millis = 10000;  //10 seconds
try{
	Thread.sleep(millis);
} catch (InterruptedException ex){
	// Handle Exception
}

Edit: thanks Phil99

I may be wrong here, but wouldn't you have to name the exception, e.g:

Code:

long millis = 10000;  //10 seconds
try{
	Thread.sleep(millis);
} catch (InterruptedException IE){
	// Handle Exception
}
