What do you mean "refresh onload". That's useless. Do you mean that you don't want the browser, or any proxies in the middle, caching it. So that everytime the page is referenced it must be retrieved anew, rather than simply loaded from cache? If so, look at the expires and no-cache headers and pragmas (google those terms).
