I began using the code page because that's how it was in the Magic Buttons app, but since I've found that I didn't need that, I disable the code page.
As, as in my explanation, I tried using refresh with this: & "&rdr=" & URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" &Dbid() & "?a=dr&rid=" & [Record ID#])
I didn't have any success using "?a=DoRedirect&z=" & Rurl())
A hard refresh is the only thing that seems to make a difference.

I'd you were populating a date/time field in this syntax populate the field with the date/time when the page loaded.
"&_fid_99=" & Now()
However, this improved syntax below will populate field 99 with the current date and time when the button is pushed.
&_fid_99=now
If your issue is that the button is getting stale while sitting on the screen, for example, if you were designing a time, clock application, where employees punch in and out, then you want to know when the button is pushed.
So my suggestion is use that syntax to populate the date/time field and then use a different formula field to extract out just the time of day portion of that field.
