1. A method for refreshing a dynamically generated document, comprising:
- receiving a dynamically generated document from a server;
recording a pointer operation and a pointer location for the pointer operation; and
automatically repeating the pointer operation at the recorded pointer location without interaction from the user, wherein the pointer operation results in receiving the dynamically generated document to form an updated dynamically generated document.

Abstract
A refresh mechanism is provided for dynamic Web pages. A graphical user interface is provided for mimicking a pointer function. A graphical slider allows a user to set a refresh interval. The user may also set a pointer location to mimic. When the refresh mechanism is enabled, the mechanism will perform the pointer function at the pointer location each time the refresh interval expires. The refresh mechanism may be programmed as part of a Web browser, a plug-in for a Web browser, or as a separate application.
