There are no PHP pages, just HTML pages, 'constructed' by PHP and send to the client.

You could use statement[code=html]<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10">[/code]at the top of your html page.

This is a HTML and (maybe later) JavaScript question, so I will move it to that form.

Either use the meta tag[html]<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10" />
<meta http-equiv="cache-control" content="no-cache" />[/html]Or use setTimeout to call a function which refreshes your page.[CODE=javascript]function refreshAfter10( ) {
window.setTimeo ut("refreshPage ()",10000); //10000micro sec = 10 sec
}
function refreshPage() {
window.location .replace('http://www.yoursite.co m');
}[/code]Call refreshAfter10( ) onload of body.

Display your screen and see it flicker every 10 seconds. How else do you suggest you can/want to check that?

I think that the refresh goes too fast that she's not able to find out if its refreshed.

@Hemavathi
Add alert('I\'m Refreshed'); in the onload of the body. And see if its displayed after 10 sec.

My screen is probably too slow. I notice a refresh being done. Time to buy a faster one.

Even mine is not that fast. I just guessed that may be her screen is, along with her server.

Not really. PHP is a server side language, HTML and JavaScript run client side. And the latter has to be refreshed. So if you could force PHP to send a new HTML page to the client, you could. But I'd stick with HTML/JavaScript solution if I were you.
