Refresh browser remotely from server. How????

Just wandering how can you close a browser remotely. In some web
applications the browser closes or refreshes periodically.

How is that done and how can it be done through PHP?

TIA,

Tom

You can't.

HTML, meta-refresh.

It's client-side behaviour, PHP runs on the server.

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?

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...

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 2) User enters some values, clicks the "Save" button 3) The onClick event handler for the save button saves the data to the database and the page is...

Hi all, I posted this question some time ago in an earlier thread but so far I still don't have an understanding of why this is happening or what I can do to fix it. I use Session variables, such as Session("username") to store a lot of information about who is logged in to my app and what they can do. Since the app permits certain users to impersonate other users (permits some users to delegate their work to assistants, who are...

How can I get an asp:Image to refresh when a user uploads a different jpg. I disabled caching using this command on Page_Load(): Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.No Cache); but it didn't help. The problem is that this page does not change images after a client uploads a new one. If I hit the browser's refresh, then I can see the updated image, but if I don't refresh, then I see the previous image.

My ASP.NET application's main page should change values on screen when some extern event occurs (a change in the state of a machine monitored by a .NET Remoting object).

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
