Smooth meta-refresh?

[jerzeemedia]

Is there a way to smooth out the refresh process so as where you'll have a page refreshing every 3-5 seconds, that annoying IE "click" noise comes into play for example. Is there a way to maybe implement javascript so that the refresh appears to be more natural?

Looking into it now. I know jack all about AJAX, so we'll see what comes of it. Thanks a lot.

Use Javascript and a timer. Pretty easy to do.. window.setTimeout is most likely what you want to use.
