My reply is slightly different to the others. I am going to define a cgi script as one
that you send to a browser. If not, it is just a perl script and cron is what you
need. If however you need information on a browser to be update then you can specify
refresh in thdocument you send to the browser. This has an interval, and the browser
will automatically refresh. Assuming the page has not changed then the new page will
also have the same interval, so you are in a refresh loop until you break it.
