HTML Page Refresh

HTML Page Refresh

Currently I am using a HTML page and just implementing the browser to display our in-house message log to the HMI screen. It refreshed/reloads the page perfectly fine when we switch between cells due to URL changes. My issue is, that when we are on a page for any period of time, this log is now out of date and not current. I know there is a page function to refresh but I can't find a way to access this anywhere. So my question to the forums is, how do I refresh my browser element periodically (either timer or on an event occurring) so that switching pages isn't how it is updated.
Thanks in advance.
