Automatic page refresh

[kriil webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

How do I get a page to automatically jump to the next page without the user having to click on a link?

In Dreamweaver use INSERT | Head Tags > Refresh and pick your URI and delay
time.

Thanks that worked great!

I have Studio MX 2004. I have one HTML page that I update frequently in one
of our sites, and I need to insert some code that will trigger a browser
refresh in the user so they get the latest update onscreen.
Can someone tell me how to do this?

Thanks,
Robert

I have a series of pages that change often. Users contact me and tell me they
don't see the new data. I know there is a way for the code to tell the client
not to cache the page OR to refresh it upon load, but I can't find the
reference. Using the META Refresh tag is the wrong one. Someone slap me up
side the head and remind me how to do this, please.
:embarrassment;
Thanks,

<META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">

This appears to work, but when testing in Firefox, the old version of a file
still showed until I refreshed the page. Does this META only prevent (new)
pages from caching and not cause a refresh upon load?

Thanks,
Karl

yes this prevents the page from being cached.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="300">

This would refresh the page every 5 minutes.
