Speaking off the top of my head, seems like a combination of html meta
refresh and a variable that increments based on HTTP REFERRER=PHP_SELF could
provide the effect you're looking for. Certainly you could meta refresh to
new pages in sequence. Or of course just use an animated gif if static text.
Have you looked into javascript/java?
I doubt that you can do it solely within php as it parses once and delivers
html. The connection betwixt the server and client is transaction and the
client would have to initiate the call to update, unless the update was
imbedded within and staged at the client.
