Quick question: What version of netscape are you viewing it under? If your on 6, try doing it in 4.7. I think it's a little more stable.

Another quesiton: Did you try using,
"<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="3;URL=http://www.some.org/some.html">" Maybe that would help, if you haven't tried it yet. it's a more netscape friendly command and it automatically does the "Pragma no-cache".

3 is the # of seconds before it automatically refreshes. And I believe the URL is optional, i think if it is left out it defaults to the current page.

Let me know if that helps.

i dont want to refresh automatically. I want it to refresh once i press a button. It works fine in Aol's browser, and Internet Explorer, but in Netscape 4.x, Nothing seem to work. I'm trying to make it work on all browser's, so i ran into this delema with netscape.

Thanks
