blah XMLhttprequest is way too much truble just for a simple refresh
and then what are you going to try to do? just replace the document
with the recived data like
code:
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].parentNode.innerHTML = recdata;
(i forgot the documentobject thing so eh thats a easy way to get to the
source of the page anyway because document.innerHTML is dodgy....)
which will cause the entire page to "flash" so eh I say the meta tag is
there for the reson to refresh so use it when you need to refresh ,
unless you want to refresh using javascript then I recomend using a
setTimeout to reload the page.
sorry but I just hate it when people try to suggest using XMLhttprequest for everything.
