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">
