Is there some way that I can put a link on to stop the page where it is in the series of pages?
eg. if the series of pages comprises pages 1 to 10 with the refresh moving from each page after 15 seconds, and the visitor wishes to stop / hold on page 6 - how do I do this?
pages 1 to 10 each have an inline frame - whose contents are selected from a "bank" of 100 pages - dependant upon which "route - selection" is made from the previous page.
any help appreciated.

I simplified the task with my post - the "bank" of pages is approx 5600 website url's - which are selected at random
I would like to have some method for a visitor to "stop" on any particular page. The randomly selected "url" appears in an inline frame.
eg. start.htm (with inline frame + random url) refreshes after 15 seconds to return.htm (with inline frame + random url)
Can this be done?
missed this
return.htm (with inline frame + random url) refreshes after 15 seconds to start.htm (with inline frame + random url)
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function refr() {
timerID = setTimeout("location.href='nextpage.html'",15000);
}
function hold() {
clearTimeout(timerID);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="refr()">
...
<a href="javascript:hold()">Pause</a>
...
</body>
</html>
I tried the javascript, worked well between 2 pages (pages without an inline frame)
page1 jumping to page2 to page1 to page2 etc....
When I tried this with the inline frame - it stopped working
I tried the inline frame with 2 "initial-pages"
version 1 using page3.htm (blank page with a refresh to the random selected page)
version 2 using the inline frame initial page url for the random page selector (cgi script)
I can sticky url if you want to see what I'm trying to do (just exploring an idea for a website)
Appreciate any further help / advice
