I know I can do a simple auto-refresh on some of my webpages (for example, the Home page of my site) by inserting a **meta tag** like But after doing this I'm getting **really long page duration and session duration**. This is not realistic, and I think that the refresh does not "reset" the page duration counter, which I think should happen. I guess this could be done with a hard refresh (Ctrl-F5 in Windows, Option+R in MacOSX), but I don't know if it is possible to force the refresh **to be a hard refresh**... or if this kind of refresh would serve to my purpose.
Well, most news sites do it. The homepage gets updated automatically with that refresh, showing new and updated articles if the reader is looking the home page. It's quite useful.
