Auto refresh of display file, without using INVITE keyword.

["Stephen Osborn" <stephen.osborn@xxxxxxxxx>]

We are using IBM's WebFacing tool to make iSeries screens available in a
browser.

WebFacing does not support all DDS keywords.  Some it just ignores, but some
keywords cause it to reject the display file as non-compilable.

One of the keywords in the latter category is INVITE.  INVITE is used to
return control to the RPG after a period of time (normally specified on the
CRTDSPF or OVRDSPF command) even if the user has not done anything.

This enables the display to be refreshed with new data, refreshed with a
modified set of options (for a menu type display) or even to exit as a
security measure.

We have displays in all three categories and need to change them to maintain
the same function but without using the INVITE keyword.


Any ideas as to what approach we should use?
