Is there some type of "splash screen" I can set up at the end of my tasks?

Hi there,
currently when my participants reach the end of their task, it takes them back to the programming page, and they just see a bunch of code. Is there anyway to program the task so when they reach the end it goes to a blank screen / something that says "this is the end of the task, wait for the experimenter" ?
Any advice is much appreciated :)

Sure. You can simply run a <trial> at the very end that displays a message of your choosing. Or you can create a simple instruction <page> like

<page endmessage>
^This is the end of the task, please wait for the experimenter.
</page>

and display it via your script's <expt> elements' /postinstructions.

<expt>
/ postinstructions = (endmessage)
...
</expt>
