The difference between "once you open the page" and "when you open the page" is in the meaning and usage of the two adverbs.
"Once you open the page" implies that the action of opening the page will happen only once and it suggests a specific moment in time. It indicates that something will happen after the page is opened, and this event will happen only once, such as "Once you open the page, you will see a pop-up message". "When you open the page" implies that the action of opening the page is hypothetical or conditional. It suggests a general or future time, and it indicates that something will happen at that time or under that condition. For example, "When you open the page, you can see the list of products available on the website". In summary, "once you open the page" suggests a specific moment in time, while "when you open the page" suggests a general or future time.  The word "accordingly" is an adverb that means in a manner that is appropriate to the circumstances or in a way that follows from or is in agreement with what has just been said.
