You can specify a reload in the header ("client pull") rather than needing any client-side script.

    From experience, I would be wary of relying on browser refresh (whether manual or not). Web page caching occurs in so many hops between host and client, and varies in behaviour between - not only - browser type, but also browser version.

    Expect some visitors to experience unwanted behaviour from a setup like this. Unfortunately I know of no way to avoid it, other than not to rely on browser refresh.
