You could try something like this but it kind of depends on how you are already using the querystring:
if(document.location.search.substr(1)!="reloaded")location=location.href+"?reloaded" -
thank you! it's working perfect!
is it possible to get rid of the ?reloaded extension at the url? it's not important, just want to know if it's possible

Not using this method, thats how it knows it has been reloaded once.Comment

there is another way of doing this.
<head>
<script>
if (window.name!="reloaded") doRefresh();
function doRefresh(){
window.name="reloaded";
location.reload();
}
</script>
</head>
if the current window or frame is not a target of any link or form, then you can do the trick with window.name. This property persists even if the page has unloaded.

why not just use a meta tag to refresh the page?
I have a similar question in the cgi board so....maybe this is my answer
Oh no wait that would referesh the page multiple times....
oh well

I am wondering how to use this reload once script when a back button is pressed? Certain select boxes disappear and have to do a refresh but only once.
ThanksComment

not sure ya can
of course you could axe the browser toolbars and add in your own back button to do thisComment

if(document.location.search.substr(1)!="reloaded")location=location.href+"?reloaded"
I used this above. The problem is that I have to use the browsers BACK button to get back to the original page...this doesn't work for that...
any ideas??
Thanks!!

boy is this easy and yet I'm drawing a blank
go offline and type in a webpage URL
hold your mouse over the text part that says "Back"
it's history-1 or something like that
sorry, overtired.
use that code
hope this blather helpsComment

my boss won't let me use a back button...it has to be the browsers button...
I'm stumped:

Got it
location.replace(targetURL);
This doesn't record any history in the browser...so I have a redirect page from the posted page which does this piece of code...works great.
see it if you'd like:
THANKS AGAIN
