The HTTP refresh has a time delay interval. The application is internal with less than 20 users at this time. And it's not as if this operation is going to be done by all of them at the same time. (Now that I think about it, perhaps I also need a way to block access while the database is being updated.) Anyway, traffic is not much of a concern. Last, I don't know much about JavaScript. It's not totally out of the question but I'd prefer to avoid it for now. Unless there's a library somewhere that has a solution to this situation.
