Redirect (reload) tab content

[viens]

1) Script Title: Ajax Tabs Content script

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...tent/index.htm

3) Describe problem:

I call a php script to delete a forum message (in the same tab):

<a href="javascript:linkjax('forum.php?do=delete&amp;mid=<?=$i['id']?>', 'aca', 0)">
Click here to delete message
</a>

I click on link, php script deletes message and shows confirmation:

<?php
echo "Message deleted. Please wait...";
?>

Then I want automatically to return to the list of messages. Without ajax I used the script below.

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var URL = "messages.php"
var speed = 1000
function reload(){
location = URL
}
setTimeout("reload()",speed);
//-->
</script>
<?php

I tried to configure this script to load the content of first tab (list of messages), but no success - it doesn't load anything (just hangs) or loads the whole website in one tab.

The only solution is to show a link where to click to return to the messages index.

<a href="javascript:linkjax('messages.php', 'aca', 0)">
Return to the messages index
</a> 

But I don't like this. It's very annoying if you need to click somewhere after each deleted message.

Is there any way how to reload (refresh) tab content automatically?

Thank you.
