Is there a way in VSD to force a specific page of a website to always refresh for a visitor to the site?
I am not looking for the page to refresh every minute, just the first time they visit that day it will force a reread of the page.
Thanks,
Bryan

How about adding two custom META tags:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache" />
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1" />
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache" />
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1" />
Sorry, tried it, and those meta tags does not make any page refreshed, users will still have to manually press F5 each time, and on each pages of your updated site.....each time.

This one does.
Paste to the head of your page.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5">
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Eric,
Are you talking about Edit/Edit Header and placing it there?

I hope that's only a 5 seconds after entering the site and nothing after that Galen? If it does every 5 seconds your band width will skyrocket

You are right. I just pasted tEric's he code into the Header. Now it is refreshing every 5 seconds.
Do you know the code I code add to make refresh on the first landing and that is all, not to repeat?
