This one uses a "content" argument, also, but don't use this for Flash

pages. This is typically used for reloading the entire image after a

certain number of seconds have elapsed (you know, like on those annoying

pages where it keeps reloading with a different color background each time)

-- would be nasty with SWF files; might not even finish playing before

being forced to reload. This one is also the one commonly used to

automagically redirect a user from one URL to another such as on a site

that has moved to a different domain.
