Hello Duke,
You can write a javascript in the html you generate from your servlet -
The javascript has a timer which on timeout refreshes the page - ie. Nothing but sends
the same request to the servlet again.
<SCRIPT>
var aTimer;
function aReload() {
location.reload(true);
}
function startReload() {
aTimer = setTimeout('aReload()', 10000);
}
function stopReload() {
clearTimeout(aTimer);
}
</SCRIPT>
This is the script for refresh.
This should work.
