Automatic Refresh of page (using a timer and .reload) causes messagebox.

I have a page with code in it to automatically refresh the page every 30
seconds. Works great. But if I do anything on the page (which resets the
timer) and then it times out to refresh, I get the 'The page cannot be
refreshed without resending the information. Click Retry to send the
information again, or click Cancel to return to the page that you were
trying to view.'

Anybody know of any way to stop that message from coming up?

Like I said - if you don't do anything - it works fine. Make any kind of
change to the page and it produces this error.

TIA.

The message comes as a result of Refreshing a page that was returned as the
result of a POST Request. IOW, probably as a result of a PostBack. What I
would do is, if the Page is Posted Back, do a Response.Redire ct to return
the Page to the client. Of course, you will have to figure out how to
restore the state to the Page in a different way. Session and QueryString
come to mind offhand.

Perhaps consider using Javascript remoting to update the page instead.

If you're using ASP.NET 2.0, it's called Client Side Postbacks.

Otherwise take a look at:

Refresh just part of the screen?

by: Conax | last post by:

Hi there, My boss is hoping that I can come up with a page that displays some information. The information will always be displayed on specific part of the page, with auto refresh. But he doesn't want the whole page to be refreshed so that buttons and images around the information do not get reloaded each time. Is this really possible? Other pages on this site don't use frames, so this page can't use frams too. Creating an ActiveX...

IE browser embedded in outlook vs refresh

by: Brad White | last post by:

Overview: I have a custom web app that has an 'Inbox' that refreshes every 30 seconds. One user uses Outlook to host the web page. Using IE, the refresh works fine. If the user is working in another window, the web page quietly refreshes in the background. Hosted in Outlook, the refresh causes Outlook to come to the front on every refresh. Or in XP, causes the toolbar icon to flash.
