How to refresh a web page after submitting a form

m developing a website where you can search for any desired property by providing appropriate inputs. I am also providing a feature where you can take part in online auctioning of a property. I have provided one input box where you can set your bid and submit for your bid. on the top of that input box i am displaying the current highest bid which i am fetching from database. If the bid submitted by user is higher than the current highest bid then the line above the input box "Current highest bid is _" should automatically get updated. But as I have written the logic for fetching and displaying highest bid from database on the top of my page n have implemented the rest of the logic for updating the database at the bottom of the page, m facing few errors, somebody plz help me Thanks in advance

there are two ways

1) just submit form to server without any ajax content.(it will be updated and loaded as default behavior)

2)use ajax(jQuery.load or jQuery.ajax will be easiest).

- submit form in the click method of jquery, 
- print bid status as  the response.
- Catch this response process it and update your data on page.
- to prevent page refresh, use event.preventDefault or return false at end of function

You can refresh your page with the help of JavaScript

location.reload();

If you want to refresh a webpage using php try this

header("Location:http://something/index.php");

Or if you want to get the highest bid from database periodically you will have to use AJAX.
