How do I refresh a page every 5 minutes ?

I have two websites....

I would like to create a frame on a page on website#1, which shows a page
from website#2

Furthermore, I would like the frame on website#1 to refresh every 5 minutes
or so.

I have HTML, ASP, VBSCRIPT and JAVASCRIPT at my disposal.

Many thanks

Set a timer to 5 minutes. When it goes off, reload the page in your
browser. Repeat.

Good luck.

VBScript will not work outside MSIE afaik.
Use a JavaScript with an onload trigger that sets a timer which runs a
function that refreshes the page and restarts the timer.

In some browsers a Refresh HTTP header or meta element might work as well

Can someone tell me how I can get a page(any page) on the Internet to refresh automatically every 5 minutes. I was thinking along the lines of having a HTML file on my C-drive with JavaScript to do so. It should be possible, Right? I don't know much about JavaScript. Thanks for the help.

Hi, is there any way of getting my VB (6.0) program to automatically 'Refresh' an IE window that might be active (window status not applicable). It needs to be able to determine which active IE window to refresh, based on its caption. For example, there is a web site that I want to keep active where I normally have to refresh it manually before it times out (every 15 min or so). I might be doing something else at the time so I don't...
