    Hello all,

    I was wondering if you could help me.

    I am trying to find out what software or programme the following websites are using. They are Nintendo Wii stock websites and they all have what they call 'Automatic Stock Updates' or 'Realtime Stock Alerts'.

    http://www.wiigamereviews.co.uk/default.aspx

    http://www.wii-consoles.co.uk/default.asp#wii_consoles

    The page updates every 60 seconds and alerts the user with a popup alert message when stock is found. It refreshes automatically.

    Please can someone tell me how this is done? Is this Javascript? How can I do this?

    I would really appreciate your help. Thanks.

    both sites use html code (meta) between <head> tag, to refresh current page every 60 seconds:
    
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" CONTENT="60;URL=http://put_your_url_here___ 
    its_optional">
    
    HTML:
    for alert of course it use javascript:
    
    <script language="Javascript">
    <!--
    alert("Your message here")
     //-->
    </script>
    
    HTML:
