Can IE be made to automatically refresh every minute os so?

We use a GPS vehicle tracking system that uses a web browser to access our vehicle locations on a map.

Currently, the screen must be manualy refreshed for us to see the real time locations of the vehicles.

Thank you.
 
To be sincere, I don't know and I don't think you can do it.

The job can be done with a little javascript but that will require some development.

Cheers,
Dian
 
How is the 'map' generated? The easiest way would be to add the html Meta Refresh tag to the head of the map page that you're viewing. But this would need to happen on the web server or whatever is generating the map.
 
Thanks guys, I found an add-on for internet explorer that does auto refresh of the web page.
I guess it was made for looking at stock quotes real time,but we basically have the same need.
 
What exactly did you find and where did you find it. Share your solution please.
