You can add a counter if you want, and keep track of the number of times it has been redirected to META, in comparison to the one before. <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1;http://www.domain.com/dir/site.php?foo=bar&meta_refresh=1";> and when the new page load, check whether the value is the same as the previous page load (user has uses refresh), or it is +1 (redirected through META) Tijnema -- Vote for PHP Color Coding in Gmail! -> http://gpcc.tijnema.info -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
