Switching between three HTML5 pages without reloading them

I am using Moka screen with HS145 BrightSign built-in

I have 5 zones, three of them with HTML5 page (that I don't want to reload), one video and one image with a text variable.

I want to switch them one by one with 15 sec screen time.

I was trying with different things, but cannot accomplish that. I tried creating variable which was changing its value from 1-4, and doing conditional command, if variable equals 1, then to show that zone, if variable not equals 1 then to hide that zone. I was seeing the change of variable but the conditional command wasn't firing, I don't know why. I also tried doing it with commands sequence hide -> pause (time to wait for specific zone to appear) -> show -> pause (time how long it should be seen on screen) -> hide. I wasn't using high times, but it seems BrightSign player is not really capable to handle 5 timers at the same time properly, so hiding/showing zones seemed random...

I'm trying to achieve it that way because I cannot reload HTML5 pages (it does not look good, when you can see a page loading for a second before seeing values from API calls..)

Can someone tell me how to achieve it? if it's even possible?

You're having trouble managing multiple zones and timers on your BrightSign HS145. To achieve your goal, simplify the logic by using a single timer to cycle through the zones. Track the current zone with a variable and update it every 15 seconds. Ensure your conditional commands are correctly set up and evaluate as expected. Use a sequence of commands to hide, show, and pause for each zone in the proper order and timing to avoid conflicts.
