If you're using a Mac, you can always use Spaces to "widen" your screen. I find it very helpful.
And as for refreshing your screen, you can use a simple meta tag in your head content in your index.php: <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="5;URL=" /> Cheers! 2010/6/20, Donna Marie Vincent <[email protected]>: > Use Javascript to auto-refresh the page.
