Stumped

A simple thing I bet but I am having some trouble getting a 1 time page refresh based on a condition.

What I have is a asp page that reads two folders. if new images are added it will process the images via Imager Resizer.dll and save a thumbnail to the thumbs folder. This all works but the problem is on first page view after the thumbs are saved the thumbs don't load. I added a button that only shows if this is the case that refreshes the page but am looking for a more automated solution. is there some simple foo.refresh or something that can be implemented? I am more into PHP/MySQL than VBScript and MSSQL so learning as I go. So far my MSDN searching and google have returned nothing I can use.

Can you post your page please?

Unfortunately I can't but I can elaborate. Everything works perfectly, the only problem is you have to refresh the page for the thumbnails to be visible if they were just created. So in the portion of the code that does the thumbnail creation I need to add some form of a one time page refresh.

This is rudimentary but you could place an if then and the end of your asp code like this

Code: Select all

<%
if not request.QueryString("refresh") = "refresh" then
response.redirect "?refresh=refresh"
end if
%>

Something along those lines, I could help out more but I would have to see it. I hope this does the trick for yeah.

Ahh you rock! That did the trick. Works perfectly now. Thanks a bunch.
