You know how when you are going through the General Questions category you always have to hit the "refresh" button to see if someone replied or if threre are any new posts?
woun'd it be better if the page automaticty refreshed every 10 seconds
and in your profule thing, you could choose if you want it to refresh or not
When I use Netscape it refreshes automatically. When I use explorer, I have to refresh every time I go into the same page as before. I believe thee might be a setting your browser's Option's to change this.

I found no such options, although I have Ie4, and I don't think it's that big problem, it would be annoying if it refreshed all the time since it takes a 10 seconds to refresh

Hello.
In IE 5 there is an option for "refreshing" a page.
Although its not working that good.
Sometimes when I have made an uppdate to my homepage I have to
clear the temporaty internetfiles to view the update.
Anyway, follow this path:
tools/options
temporary internetfiles/settings
check if there is a newer version of saved pages
select the first: every time the you visit the page
It might help, it might not.
Good luck

That is a good suggestion. I will change the template to make it refresh every 5 minutes.

John, can you make that an option in profiles? I mean you could set the amount of mins before refreshing or even turn it off.
