Redirect a website after a random amount of time

Question

I am currently using the following code to redirect a visitor after a set time.

(function(){
    setTimeout(function(){
        window.location="http://google.com/";
    },3000); /* 1000 = 1 second*/
})();

How would I make this a random time from 10-25 seconds?

You just need to create a variable that will randomly select a number between 10-25, then use that value as the interval (don't forget to multiply by 1000 to convert milliseconds to seconds)

(function(){
    var maxTime = 25;
    var minTime = 10;
    var randomTime = Math.floor(Math.random() * (maxTime - minTime + 1)) + minTime;

    setTimeout(function(){
        window.location="http://google.com/";
    }, randomTime * 1000);
})();
