Solution 1

You may use Timer control to auto refresh your page.
On button click disable the timer control if its enabled and vice versa.
In this way, you can enable/disable auto refresh of the page.

Response.AddHeader
Here is a another way of what you want. Auto refreshing it, .

Place a button to enable this 'Auto refresh'. Put this code ther:

C#

Response.AddHeader("Refresh", Convert.ToString("some time after which you need refresh");

Place another button to disable this. Remove this Header.

C#

Response.AppendHeader("Refresh", Convert.ToString("some very large time will work like no refresh");

You are done!
