Refresh page only once

Lex
I want to reload a page only once. Therefor meta refresh is not
suitable, because then it refreshes every x seconds. Is there a
possibility to refresh only once?

regards,
Lex Ouburg

Probably, but your reason for wanting to do this is probably as a hack
to 'solve' some other problem that would be better addressed directly.

<a href="#" onclick="window .reload();retur n false;">Reload</a>

Of course, the user could just click the Reload button on their
browser, duplicating that functionality seems a bit silly.

The window.location .reload() will reload the window. You could try
working with cookies or another window to keep track of the number of
time it has been refreshed.

No it won't. Of course I meant:

<a href="#" onclick="window .location.reloa d();return
false;">Reload</a>
or
<a href="#" onclick="window .location.reloa d(true);return
false;">Reload</a> (which is supposed to force a GET regardless of
whether the document is currently cached or not)

Apologies for any problems this may have caused.

I have a page that gets loaded with a meta-refresh hardcoded so that a few things on the page get updated. its kind of a fake chat board. anyway, what I need to do is turn off the meta-refresh once someone clicks in a <textarea> to enter their input; otherwise the refresh catches them in the middle and messes up the focus.

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.

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...

Hi Fellow Members, I want to know if HTML provides any way of refreshing a page only once automatically. My requirement is to refresh a page automatically only once after 2 minutes to display an updated data. Henceforth, the page should not refresh anymore. Can anyone suggest me some ways to do it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
