I am having problems getting a secure page to refresh via
a meta refresh tag. My refresh submits the form which
calls my ASAPI DLL app. The refresh works fine if it is
not on a secure page.

<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="1;URL=javascript:document.MainForm.submit()">

I suspect that the coding is the problem but I can't say
for sure. Can you code it without the JavaScript: call?

BTW IE6 Browser is for end user discussion about the UI,
including error recovery. Unfortunately there aren't any
IE6 newsgroups dedicated to discussions of developer topics
so some spill over into here but I suspect you will find more expertise
on coding issues in the IE5 programming newsgroups.

See if you can find a list of newsgroups using this link
(or do the necessary setup in your news reader):

< news://msnews.microsoft.com/ >

ie5 programming appears to be a useful pattern to filter out
IE Programming newsgroups. E.g. if OE opens the above link
press Ctrl-w and type ie5 pro

(AFAIK there are no IE6 Programming newsgroups but you may find
there are other online web forums you can try--e.g. via Developer's links.
And I am just assuming that most people just use the ones under IE55.
I have never actually looked at any of them.)


Good luck
