Hi
I am using
<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" CONTENT="<%=autoRefreshTime%>;URL=<%=params%>">
where
autorefresh=30,
params="marketdetails.ma?isAuto=yes&sortBy="+sortcolumn+"&isSort="+sortFlag+"&order_by="+orderby ;
sortcolumn=”ticker”,
sortFlag = “yes”
orderby=”asc”.

As far as the auto refresh is considered, it is working fine. But the problem with this is, whenever auto refresh is happening, the auto refresh page is becoming active i.e. If I am working on some other application say checking mails in outlook express, when auto refresh is happening, outlook is loosing the focus and auto refresh page is becoming active.
It is not happening in all the machines and we observed it only on some machines.
Thanks for your solution.
Thanks
Eda
