Do you mean
<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" content="0" URL="http://www.yourpage.com">?
or are you after something else?

I think he or she means something more like:

<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1">

Almost. The Expires header field requires an absolute date in RFC 1123 format.

<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT">

From RFC1123, section 14.21 (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.21):
HTTP/1.1 clients and caches MUST treat other invalid date formats, especially including the value "0", as in the past (i.e., "already expired").
