Try an absolute path (eg: http://Queue.html#refreshBottom). I also noticed
this in some old FAQ:
Note: If a script is executed which reloads the current document, the
action of the Refresh tag may be undefined. (e.g. <body onLoad=
"document.location='otherdoc.doc'">)
Apparently using the semicolon is the correct syntax.
