Hi all,

There are many ways to achieving your goal. But originally solution is

JavaScript

location.reload();

Now, i just give you an idea by present some ways to using location.reload.
1:-

JavaScript

//check index of reloading page and reload the page accordingly.
   if (window.location.href.indexOf('reload')==-1) {
     window.location.replace(window.location.href+'?reload');
    }

2:-

JavaScript

if(window.top==window) {
 // You're not in a frame, so you reload the site.
 window.setTimeout('location.reload()', 5000); //Reloads after five seconds
}
else {
 //You're inside a frame, so you stop reloading.
}

3:-

JavaScript

// You should keep a flag in cookie, server session, or local storage. For example: 
  window.onload = function () {
    if (! localStorage.OnceLoad) {
        localStorage.setItem("OnceLoad", "true");
        window.location.reload();
    }
  }
