Refresh document every 300 seconds using HTML Meta tag add this inside the head tag of the page

 <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="300">

Using Script:

            setInterval(function() {
                  window.location.reload();
                }, 300000);

The interval callback only runs once since the reloading stops any scripts from running. setTimeout would achieve the same thing. – ekuusela Apr 09 '15 at 06:12
current code works in normal and ignores post variables. can we do this with post variables? – Pradeep Kumar May 21 '15 at 05:28

Install an interval:

<script type="text/javascript">    
    setInterval(page_refresh, 5*60000); //NOTE: period is passed in milliseconds
</script>

Honestly this is the simplest answer out there, and doesn't require any javascript – Alex oladele Oct 09 '20 at 22:28

Auto reload with target of your choice. In this case target is _self set to every 5 minutes.

300000 milliseconds = 300 seconds = 5 minutes

as 60000 milliseconds = 60 seconds = 1 minute.

This is how you do it:

<script type="text/javascript">
function load()
{
setTimeout("window.open('http://YourPage.com', '_self');", 300000);
}
</script>
<body onload="load()">

Or this if it is the same page to reload itself:

<script type="text/javascript">
function load()
{
setTimeout("window.open(self.location, '_self');", 300000);
}
</script>
<body onload="load()">

auto refresh for every 5 mins
