Hi Markus --

Thanks for the suggestion.

The page that actually launches the download window sets
content-disposition.
Therefore, I don't think I can emit JavaScript through that page -
correct me if I am wrong.

The form in the main window simply posts to that download page, and
therefore doesn't know anything of what's going on.

The form tag on the main screen is as follows -
<form name="frmDownloadOrders" id="frmDownloadOrders" method="post"
action="startDownload.php">

The startDownload.php script generates the download stream and sets
content-disposition.

My issue is refreshing the main screen where the form is after the form
has been posted to startDownload.php

Thanks for any ideas/suggestions.

-Harold.
