Figured out the issue.. it has to do with sessions. If you have an
existing session when you try to do this, and you refresh the page,
PHP will NOT feed you the new page because the existing session is
still going on (not sure if this is a bug, but this is why you need to
restart the browser or the web server). To solve this, in your PHP
function/code, before you enter the polling loop, use:
session_write_close();
Make sure you get all the session data you need before you issue this
command.
