html - IE doesn't evaluate meta-refresh anymore after pressing F5 -
ridiculous simple html-file:
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.01 transitional//en" "http://www.w3.org/tr/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url=./test.html"> </head> <body> <h1>hello world</h1> </body> </html> when open file any browser, browsers behave , reload page every 5 seconds.
but when refresh page manually between 2 refreshes (f5), ie (v 8.0.6001.18702) doesn't evaluate meta tag anymore , page gets no longer refreshed. opera, ff , safari still work expected , refresh every 5 seconds.
has else experienced such problem? how (apart of using javascript, of course) issue solved?
edit 1:
verified behavior on ie6, guess it's general ie problem. hints how overcome this?
edit 2:
keep topic going:
- is known problem or worth file bug ticket somewhere (where?)?
- could verify behavior ie7 and/or ie9?
in ie 9 works fine.
p.s. missed few quotation marks should be:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;" url="./test.html">
