Auto Refresh a cfform

I have a page with flash cfforms and I was wondering if there was any command to auto-refresh the screen say every 30 seconds or so? Is the "timeout" cmd somehow related? Sorry, I am a cf noob.

Thanks,
Nick Butler

    Put the part you want refreshed in an iframe.

    google "meta refresh"

    Even more importantly, why would you want to refresh a page that had a form on it?

    The reason I want to refresh a page with a form is because sometimes there are multiple users viewing two linked pages. There will be a report sending page, and a report recieving/viewing page. The person who recieves the reports likes to leave her browser window open, and as it currently stands, if someone submits a report while she has her window open, she will not see the new report unless she manually refreshes the page.

    Ok, I got the meta refresh tag to work, but it reloads the entire page. Is there any way to make it only refresh a specific flash form?
