    Thumbs up

    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.
