How to Auto refresh a page in OAF?

Step 1:

Open the CO of any region in the page that need to be refreshed.

Step 2:

In the CO write the following code to put a javascript on the page.
   
    String onLoadFunction = "\n function onLoadFunction (refTime){ " +
                         "\n setTimeout(\"location.reload(true);\",refTime);" +
                         "\n } " ;
    pageContext.putJavaScriptFunction("onLoadFunction",onLoadFunction);
Step 3:

Now, in the same CO use following code to get the root web bean of the page

    OABodyBean rtBodyBean = (OABodyBean) pageContext.getRootWebBean();

Do not forget to import oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.beans.OABodyBean;

Step 4:

Now, call setOnload on the bodybean to call the javascript function created in step 1 every time body of the page is loaded.

rtBodyBean .setOnLoad("JavaScript:onLoadFunction(5000)");

5000 in above code is in milliseconds. So above code will refresh the page every 5 seconds.



This code is tried and tested.
