cause page to postback to server?

Hello, what is the page directive (was it meta something?)
that causes page go call the server at predefined
intervals? I used to have a link to sample code but it's
broken now.

thanks

Right, a new request, and it causes my page to load again
on the server (so IsPostBack will be false, I assume).
What I am after is when server must execute a lenghthy
operation, I would start it in the separate thread, return
a "wait" page, and then have the wait page send a new
request to server one time which would wait until the long
op thread finished. Does this sound right? Thanks everyone
for posting.

You're right, it just creates a request. That's what I assume he was actuallyafter, but I could be wrong.

Does this cause a postback? or just a new request?

i would expect it to be a new request but i could be wrong.

I've got a page where the nature of the beast is such that the user clicks a submit button to ransomize some data in somewhat rapid succession (once per second, give or take). The page generates a little table, 10x10, of small pictures that represent the randomized data. The submit button tells the server (which is keeping track of which pictures are where) to scramble them around and output a new table. The output is simple HTML. The...

When I navigate to the next page using Response.Rediect("MyNextPage.aspx") current page Page_Load event is called.
