refreshing

[davewine]

Ok, so, I have this page that "programX" modifies to every so often...lets call it "page1.php"

I have another page called "index.php" that extracts certain info from "page1.php"

Right now, I have META tags refreshing my "index.php" every 2 minutes.

Is there ANY way, that when "programX" modifies "page1.php", that "index.php" gets automatically refreshed?

Does my question make sense?

PHP is a server-side language, that is, it can only do processing on the server, never on the client. Javascript is a client-side language.

If 'programX' can modify 'page1.php', presumably it can execute it too, if so then put something in there that will call 'index.php' at the end, e.g. a header() redirect.
