An accessible method of allowing the user to pause and restart the rapidly updating content will ensure that users are able to minimise any distractions and allow them to read the content in their own time.
Webpages that auto-refresh content or redirect automatically to another page should allow enough time for users to orient themselves and understand the page content.
Provide some means of pausing and restarting rapidly moving content. This may be achieved by including accessible buttons or links or by assigning a keyboard shortcut (e.g. pressing the space bar to pause/restart content).
To ensure that users are able to orient themselves and understand the page content, it is important that webpages auto-refreshes and redirects do not occur too rapidly. Allow users enough time to interpret the initial page content and to understand where they have been redirected to.
