 Posted: Sat Jan 30, 2016 11:11 am Post subject: Auto refresh web page |
 |
|
I surfed the web for some code to auto refresh a web page and found this bit of code that I have edited for my needs.
| Code: | On Error Resume Next
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
With IE
.Navigate "https://WebPageAddress"
.Visible = True
End With
counter = 1
Do Until counter>= 181
WScript.Sleep 180000 '3 min
IE.Refresh()
counter = counter + 1
Loop |
This was designed to work for 9 hours, but ends after 6 hours. What I would like to do is to end the loop at 1500(my Time), but I don't know the syntax to access and/or use the pc time.
Any suggestions from anyone?

To refresh a web page automatically without pressing the F5 key continently.
Zanzer, trying that currently, thanks.

Sounds like some DOS attack.

As I answered earlier, nothing mysterious or ominous.

Most modern browsers have plugins for things like this vs. having to code your own thing. It would be built into the browser requiring no extra tools running.

Using IE, what must be adjusted to do this?

-Really fantastic. Anyway, I'm quite certain that it's for something really stupid at this point.

Your analytic thoughts are incorrect, very important to me, perhaps not you.
