Page refresher RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have tried using the following <meta http-equiv="refresh" /> to refresh my pages, but it doesn't seem to work right. Is there something missing.

  • You need to set an interval in seconds.
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10" />

    Sets a ten second interval.

  • I am curious, is there a way to have it refresh when loaded but not keep refreshing?

  • That would require a javascript that uses window.onload to trigger a function that reloads the page
    But, why do want it to refresh only one time?

  • Only because I have found the constant refreshing causes a flash especially with inframes and I wondered it it could be avoided.
