I want to reload a page automaticly, without the user clicking a button after a task is done. How can I do this?

Well if you want to refresh the page upon a certain event, (eg. onclick event of a button), you can do this:

onclick="location.reload();"

But if you want to do it after a certain amount of time you wan use the non-js solution:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="n;url=page.html">

where n is the delay in seconds and page is the page you want to send them to, (the meta tag one is good for slide shows).

Edit: Hmm... you edited while I was posted, but still the principal is the same, onsomeevent="location.reload();". It just depends what the event is.
