Iirc using meta refresh will cause problems with a back button,
however... I'd do something slightly different...
<body onload="window.setTimeout('location.reload()',5000)">
That will reload the page after 5 seconds... and it does it using the
same mechanism that your browser's reload button uses, so when the
user hits their back-button it won't have a list of 20-someodd
meta-refreshed pages in another window to go through...
I don't know that this is an issue for you -- I haven't even looked at
the page, just a suggestion for solving an issue I've seen in the
past. :)
