Hi,

I need to know how much time has left from this meta:
<meta id="ref" http-equiv="refresh" content="300;url="/>
I mean:
--------
when the page has loaded I have 5 minutes to wait until the page will
refresh by himself. Meanwhile I need to know the countdown to 300...

any idea ?

Since this would be client side you would need to use Javascript.

What are you going to do with this time?

Counting time passed from the page load is not difficult. Use a javascript
timer. I am not sure if you can get the content:xx value in javascript. You
may consider passing it down in another way, for example in a hidden input
element.

Use Javascript to do the countdown. You can just as well use the
Javascript to do the refresh also.
