we have a computer which only purpose is to display a web page on a big screen. This page has a calendar, which reloads its data every 60 seconds. The whole page reloads after 60 minutes. Both of these reloads are called from jQuery by setInterval(); function.
This all works fine, but sometime the connection to the server is lost and then there is this message Connection lost shown on the big screen with some hints and a button to reload the page (on Firefox).
Is there a way, how to reload this page (or a tab in Firefox (or other browser)) with a Windows at command (scheduled task) automatically every X minutes? Or do you have other tips or solutions how to make sure that the page is always shown?
For firefox: use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tab-auto-reload/
For chrome: use https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/easy-auto-refresh/aabcgdmkeabbnleenpncegpcngjpnjkc?hl=en
To display a website, I think 1 of this 2 browser will do the trick. Personally I am using firefox to display computer lab timetable in my institution.
