Hey everybody ..
every one of you knows the refresh button in every browser and accordingly it function.
Can anyone tell me how to make a text/button/image in a web site to have the same function?

just link to the page you want to refresh with php_self.
<a href="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] ?>">Refresh</a>

You'd be better off using REQUEST_URI as that includes the request_uri of the document, PHP_SELF is the script name only.

<script language="javascript">
function reloadPage( )
{
document.location.href = '<?=$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ?>';
}
</script>
</head>

<body>
<input type="submit" name="refresh" value="Refresh" onclick="reloadPage();" />
<a href="javascript:reloadPage();">Refresh</a>
</body>
</html>
