Refresh Code
We receive a lot of questions related to the actual code to make a web page refresh (rather than using the Refresher Application itself).
We have listed below several methods to make your page refresh after a preset amount of time which will allow you to
set up a web page to automatically refresh on the viewers browser.
Copy and paste the code below, or download any of the sample pages next to each code section.
Examples
PHP Example:
In this example the current page is automatically reloaded after 5 minutes. Note that time is expressed in seconds, therefore to have 5 minutes between refreshes you would need to type 300. You cannot output
any html to the page BEFORE issuing the header code.
You can use the php line below to redirect (with a selected delay) to another page of your site, or external to your site:
<?php
// The current page will refresh automatically every 300 seconds (5 minutes).
header("Refresh: 300;");
?>
The code below will forward you to the log-in page after 10 seconds:
<?php
// The page will forward you to the /log-in/ page in 10 seconds time.
header("Refresh: 10; url=/log-in/");
?>
PHP/HTML Example:
PHP and HTML integrated together:

<!--
We have the "refresh" meta-tag in case the user's browser does
not correctly support JavaScript or has JavaScript disabled.
Notice that this is nested within a "noscript" block.
-->
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="6">
</noscript>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
var surl = unescape(window.location.pathname);
function doLoad()
{
// the timeout value should be the same as in the "refresh" meta-tag (6 seconds)
setTimeout( "refresh()", 6000 );
}
function refresh()
{
// This version of the refresh function will cause a new
// entry in the visitor's history. It is provided for
// those browsers that only support JavaScript 1.0.
//
window.location.href = surl;
}
//-->
</script>
<script language="JavaScript1.1">
<!--
function refresh()
{
// This version does NOT cause an entry in the browser's
// page view history. Most browsers will always retrieve
// the document from the web-server whether it is already
// in the browsers page-cache or not.
//
window.location.replace( surl );
}
//-->
</script>
<script language="JavaScript1.2">
<!--
function refresh()
{
// This version of the refresh function will be invoked
// for browsers that support JavaScript version 1.2
//
// The argument to the location.reload function determines
// if the browser should retrieve the document from the
// web-server. In our example all we need to do is cause
// the JavaScript block in the document body to be
// re-evaluated. If we needed to pull the document from
// the web-server again (such as where the document contents
// change dynamically) we would pass the argument as 'true'.
//
window.location.reload( false );
}
//-->
</script>

<!--
Use the "onload" event to start the refresh process.
-->
<body onload="doLoad()">
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
// we put this here so we can see something change
document.write('<b>' + (new Date).toLocaleString() + '</b>');
