Isn't that always the way, the best scripts are never your own!!

That's a great script detox!

This is adapted from a script on IRT, plasce this in the head of you document

<?php
 &lt;script language=\"JavaScript\"&gt;<!--
var Passed = '' + location.search;
    
if (Passed != '' && Passed != 'undefined')
    Passed = parseInt(Passed.substring(1));
     
else
    Passed = 1;
    //document.write(\"this page has been refreshed\");
 

function loopy() {
 
    loc = window.location.href
    sPos = loc.indexOf('?');
    if (sPos != -1) loc = loc.substring(0,sPos); // loose existing search
    window.location = loc + (Passed-1);


}
//-->&lt;/script&gt;
?>

and place this in your body tag

<?php
onLoad=\"setTimeout('loopy()',10000)\"
?>

this was meant to be a script to refresh the page 3 times I simply changed the variable Passed to 1

Will this work?

okay, look, there is a fix for the Netscape onresize error. I'll track it down, because it should work.

However, you really need to look at why you want to refresh the page. It would be far better to prevent caching if the content must be updated frequently, than to force a refresh.

I'll see if I can find it, back later,

OK looks like the only way to do this is to make two of the same page (add a mirror page).

Add this code to the original page (replace my url with your mirror page url:

</script>

I don't know it was working but every time I closed the browser and reopened in it stopped reloading only once.

We will have to keep searching for the right code to do this.

OK I figured it out here is the code:

Using the complete URL forces the page to reload from the server and not the cache.

This code reloads the page only once!

I found this link:
http://developer.irt.org/script/973.htm

It works only with frames,
tried to get it to work without frames... but did not succeed (yet)

Hope it helps a bit,

>>Where can I find a javascript code that makes the page refresh just once.<<

Yeah. That seem to be the million dollar question.

It must be able to be done.
