Ok.. Re-word:

How can i make a link (eg. Click Here (nowhere)) refresh a website, just as the 'refresh/reload' buttons would do in IE/Netscape?

javascript:history.go(0);

Thanks rh71, That would probably work too. This is what i was looking for: <a href="javascript:location.reload()"> Finally found it on accident!

holey, moley, see my first reply...

a "link" is a hyperlink to a url. clicking link should make request to url, always, period.

regardless of user browser settings or cache.

client request to server always worky.

Now, tell me how to:

"refresh a website"

[rh71]

it's found at http://www.irt.org ... good stuff there including the answer you were looking for (FAQs section). Nevermind the qball of wax reply. He forgets that message boards are for helping people. Someday he'll wake up and realize he's wasting his time with thoughtless & repetitive words ;) I can't even discuss sensibly with the sfb (his term).

LOL.. Thanks rh71. I couldn't even figure out what the heck qball was talking about, so I just ignored it.. I did find my answer yesterday though, accidentally ran across it when I was trying to fix a problem on my webserver.

<A HREF="javascript:location.reload()">

is what I was looking for. Thanks for the link though, will check it out :)
