We have multiple LCDs at a console, and usually one is dedicated to displaying a browser
with the local ELog. Meanwhile, others are making entries from another machine. If
no one clicks on refresh, the ELog display becomes stale. Is there a method to have
the ELog reload every X minutes?

Thanks, Alan


The JavaScript is one possibility as Steve mentioned correctly. Another possibility is to use the RSS feed capability of ELOG. Use any RSS reader, and it will notify you immediately if there is a new entry in ELOG. Have a look at http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html and search for RSS on how to configure this.
