I am doing a simple php header refresh --
header('refresh : 10; url=msgs.php');
that just does a call back to my script every 10 seconds. Things work
great when the page is first loaded up, but if the end user hits F5 or
the refresh button, then the page stops refreshing indefinately. Any
ideas how to make it so that the page perpetually refreshes regardless
of what the end user presses?

I tried using:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10; url=msgs.php" />
But it behaves exactly the same as using the php header fxn. If I hit
the IE refresh button, the refreshing no longer continues.
I said in my post that IE doesn't support the Refresh header. Try using
a different browser. Refresh is a Netscape-specific part of HTTP/1.0
and was removed from HTTP/1.1.
Rethink your use of this 'feature'. It won't work on every browser and
especially on IE.

Mine does, but it's not on a Mac.

Sound advice.

Neither HTTP/1.0 nor 1.1 define a Refresh header. Although
it's not a violation of either to respond with a Refresh.
Rethink your use of this 'feature'.
Sound advice again.

HTTP/1.1 compliant implementations aren't required to treat
Refresh in any particular way. Decent browsers offer the
option of ignoring both Refresh headers and META refreshes.

HI again:
I have made 2 posts on this issue, and for some reason still haven't got the right result.
I have a form which contains a number of totals. These totals use unbound control boxes
and are of the form: =Dcount("field","table"). The form contains a number of buttons which
trigger queries (using a macro) that update some tables and delete records from others.
The effect of these macros is to change the counts that should register...

I have a situation where I am using an unbound dialog form to update data in
an Access 2002 split back end / front end scenario. The data update is done
via an ADO call (direct to the back end db) when the user clicks the save

result of their edit in a list view that now has focus. This is where I run
into a problem. The list view wont refresh to pick up the data...

Hi,
MSDN documentation about HTTP Response Headers say Refresh is obsolete and
maintained for legacy application compatibility only.
How can I achieve the same functionality to releoad the new contents of a
page?
I can use the timer component but, is there a http-like solution?

Products page, user enters a quantity and clicks one of my "Add to Cart"
buttons, which bubbles up through the datalist and calls a method to
AddToCart(cartID,prodID,prodQty). Now, if the user clicks 'refresh', that
method is executed again without clicking the button. So if they add 2

I'm having an issue with the "Refresh" of an asp.net page. The refresh is
actually calling my last onClick event. I thought that asp.net was supposed
to be stateless in that it shouldn't remember that I clicked a button before
the refresh. Here is what is going on:
1) Page Loads

3) The onClick event handler for the save button saves the data to the

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

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,...
