Server cannot refresh page by itself, there is no simple way of achieving that. If you really experiencing such behavior, then somewhere in your code you have an explicit refresh (redirect perhaps? JavaScript maybe?) or AJAX is forcing page reload.
Please note that I said "simple way". You could do that by more sophisticated technologies, but it is highly unlikely that you are doing that.
