How could I command my internet explorer or any other web browser to open up, wait for seconds, and then close repeatedly?

    You would have to write an external program/script to do it.
    But let's cut to the chase, what is your real objective? To open a specific web page every few minutes? There are much easier ways to do that.

      Yea, I'm just trying to open a specific page or several pages every several seconds, then close it, and repeat.

    Agree with KirkMcD u must write some scripts or program to implement those sorts of work according to your designed and defined time at any action.

      Thanks for the reference. I knew about the commercially developed products but didn't know about this one.
