If you mean refreshing the client's page without using the refresh
meta-tag, I think a simple solution might be to use an applet.
A simple applet with a ServerSocket on particular port. When the
database is changed, the server sends a message to the applet which
tells the browser to refresh the page.
Alternatively, the applet can periodically check if the database has
been modified and then request the page.
I would prefer to have a single thread checking for database
modification and all change listening applets register with it so
multiple copies of the same query are not run on the database.
