Try:

1) loading the page with a query string so the browser assumes the page
is unique data
http://www.foo.com/dir/popupnews.html?1

2) reloading that unique data
setTimeout("re()",1500)
function re(){
location=location
}

That seems to be the only thing I've found that works, unless it doesn't
then we're both back to square one.
