yeh we all know the meta refresh tag.. can be very useful, but heres the problem 1: not every 1 has meta refresh allowed (not a big problem but never the less...) 2: it makes that clicking noise on mouse browsers when it refreshes... is their a way to disable that clicking noise, or even another approach to refreshing the page content automatically after a set period of time ? roamhosting.net

I have never heard of disabling page refreshes (though Firefox probably has a config option for it). The clicking doesn't seem a huge issue either. More problematic in my mind are: - it adds another page to the brower history - it reloads the entire document (inefficient, changes entire flow of page) - it is susceptible to session timeouts " even another approach to refreshing the page content automatically after a set period of time ?" Yes. Use a javascript timer and perform a refresh after so long. Alternatively, you can use a javascript timer and refresh the page more seamlessly with XMLHTTPREQUEST. This feature actually gives you a lot of power.

the fresh wud happen every 300 seconds the click think wud start to get annoying for the users... and, it will only be refreshing to execute about 30 lines of PHP code roamhosting.net
