Hey Chelsea:
Unfortunately there is no such option in Safari. However, there is an
extension to Safari called Saft that adds a "Block HTML Refreshing"
option
that does exactly what you want, although you might want to know
that there
are several drawbacks both to saft and to blocking refreshing. For
starters,
some sites depend on the refreshing to redirect you to the right
site. I
remember fairly well, especially if there's a splash page, that I had
trouble getting to the main site if it was even possible at all with
this
option turned on by accident. There's some other odd behavior of
sites as
well, but none I can remember in particular, just that that happened.
The other problem is with Saft - Saft is not free and it must be
updated
every time Safari itself is updated else you will not be able to use
it,
which takes a few days after the update to Safari is made available
(e.g.
through a software update of OS X).
cheers,
jane

will refresh
like crazy just as I get to the content in which I am searching

driving me batty! I don't remember having this problem with my old
PC.
Whoever can help will be a friend for life!
