"Meta" elements must not be used to refresh the content of a page

Description

Because different users have different speeds and abilities when it comes to parsing the content of a page, a "meta-refresh" method to reload the content of the page can prevent users from having full access to the content. Try to use a "refresh this" link instead..

Example

Wrong

<head><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="60"></head>

Right

<head></head><body><a href="here.html">Refresh</a></body>
