HTML - Auto-refresh Web Page
Is this the correct code to use to auto-refresh a web page? It is not working for me. Is there something I'm missing?
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="60; URL=http://website.com/"> Thank you. Similar TutorialsThis is my first time posting here and was needing some help regarding auto refresh in html. I have a web page on our local network for my work that uploads screen shots of security cameras around the different locations. I have the page set to auto refresh and when it does refresh to redirect to another page that has a different set of cameras on it. The redirect works but the problem is after leaving this page up and running for several hours it will get stuck after a redirect and will keep trying to load the page for hours and wont redirect. It usually gets stuck on grabbing one of the images of the cameras, and then has problems displaying the image which then causes the page to sit and try to load for hours with no redirect. I was just wondering if there is anything that i can do for this? I am new to html and dont know much so any help will be greatly appreciated. Dpat is there any way that you can refresh one image on an html web page without haveing to refresh the whole page? Good morning... I have a bunch of links that open pdf files publish on a server. These files are overwritten with the latest data every 30 minutes... the challenges i have is to open the latest and greatest when i click on the link..... I do have a meta refresh code in the head of my page, it look like this: <head> <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache"> each one of my links look like this: <a href="http://myweb.com/report/reportinpdf.pdf"; >Report name herer</a> Any ideas on making sure that i open the latest and greatest instead of whatever is in the cookies....???? (i am assuming that is why the files is not updating...) Thanks in advance... Seabass Hi there. Just to give a background of where this will be used, it is for Radio City in Liverpool (UK radio station of the year 2007). So big stuff! It will be used for what we already have in use, which is using frontpage, the person answering phones for the sport football phone-in, we key in the caller name, where they are from and what they want to talk about into a frontpage auto refresh we have, which refreshes every couple of seconds in the main on air studio. So we key in the details, it refreshes in the studio and can see what caller is there. What we would like to do now is to have someway of auto adding the data into a database on auto refresh when it detects new information ahs been keyed in, and it adds each field into microsoft access. So this keeps a database of callers that have gone onto the show for future usage. Is there any kind of way this is possible even just adding the caller into a new frontpage page automatically, maybe not access? Access would be easier, but is it possible at all? I was thinking along the lines of "on refresh, detect new info, detect fields, add new info into database". Hope you can help for this major project for such a major station! thanks, Ryan.

I've got the REFRESH thingy reloading the page every 5 seconds or so, but it'll only display the graph that it opens on (not the one that reflects the last couple of seconds). If I actually go and hit the reload button (I'm on Safari) the current graph'll come up, and then (this is weird) the next time the page refreshes it'll actually pull up that current graph, but all further refresh cycles don't do anything...what's going on here?

HTML Code: <td width="100" style="TEXT-ALIGN:center" onclick="showNFailDialog('{IP_ID}','{ZONE_ID}','{GROUP_ID}');"> <IMG style="WIDTH:24px;HEIGHT:22px;CURSOR:hand" class="ZState NFail" name="disp" alt="Zone {ZONE_ID}" src="../../Icons/circle_cancel.png" eis="name:{IP_ID}.{ZONE_ID}.{GROUP_ID}.Alarm;type:1;virtual:1;img0:/Icons/circle_green.png;img1:/Icons/circle_red.png;"> </td> this line basically says value 0 shows green, value 1 shows red.. img0:/Icons/circle_green.png;img1:/Icons/circle_red.png Is there a way I can insert some code into the image section that makes the image refresh every so often but without refreshing the whole page/table your help is greatly appreciated I have a form where a select list can be updated by clicking 'update' next to it. When this is clicked I would ideally like just that to be updated, but I do not think this is possible. I was thinking of having two form actions, one that submits the form as usuall, but one that submits the form somewhere else, depending on which submit button is clicked. If I could have two submit buttons, I could use one to submit the form back to the same script, with the script re-filling the form elements that where filled out, and the select box would then update. So, my main question is...... Is there a javascript submit function that can change the destination of the form? Perhaps this should be in the javascript section! I've been trying to get a design to work properly under Firefox for several days. Unfortunately because of ip issues I can't post any code. The basic problem is that I tell a table that I it to have height: 100% and it won't do it. Sometimes (not always) the table renders in such a way such that it is less than 100%. <table><tr><td><table class="gimme_some_height_already">...blah blah</table> Here's the annoying part. The problem is intermittent and goes away every time when I hit refresh under Firefox. Why should the page render differently just because I hit refresh? Also, when the table doesn't render properly, the links don't work. I have standard, nothing special <a> links inside the table. When the table is misrendered and I click on a link, instead of transferring to that page, the table just gets bigger! It's as if the table were in a very delicate state, and if someone touched or sneezed on it the whole page would move and rerender. Very strange. None of this happens under IE. I know that many people think that when IE and Firefox disagree that I ought to go with what Firefox says, but really hitting the refresh buttons shouldn't make the page look different. Does anyone know what is going on, and perhaps how I could go about fixing it? I've tried many variations, trial and error combinations and dirty tricks. hi guys, i have a site that is updated regularly but everytime i update it, i go to the site and i have to hit refresh. how do i make it so that you dont have to do this? do i have to clear cookies or something? thanks in advance. sam |
