How do I push an "auto update" to a browser

How can I get my site to push updates if browsers are sitting static and I would like to push new content to them. I.E. I would like to see new "Recent topics" automatically get pushed to browsers. A friend said to try putting <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="300"/> in my theme.html. It doesn't appear to work. Is there a solution for this?

Thanks

hello doug..

hm.. dunno if i would use this on my sites ..aerm.. but your friend is right though havn't tried...., perhaps you should add the URL ....

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="300; URL=URI">

perhaps this way...

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="300; URL=<{$xoops_url}>">

don't think it a practical feature
You may try server-push, which not work for IE.

Just to finish out this thread, I made it work by putting:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="600" />

In the "head" section of theme.html. It nicely updates browsers, every 10 minutes, with current content if they are sitting on the CMS page.

Thanks
