happs Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hi Is using <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0"; url="<? echo $_SERVER['PHPSELF']; ?>"> really the best way to refresh the page? For instance, I have a form that once submitted calls a PHP function to carry out the required task, and then goes back to showing what has been submitted by refreshing the page. The above script works fine, but is using a META really the best way of doing this ? Thanks for your ideas in advance. - Alex Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/73205-solved-best-way-to-refresh-page/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattal999 Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 if you want it to go instantly (as soon as the button has been pressed and the task proccessed on the next page): header("Location: newpage.php"); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/73205-solved-best-way-to-refresh-page/#findComment-369282 Share on other sites More sharing options...
