I know that you can remove the refresh button on the home screen by removing the data url but... is it possible to remove the button but still have a page refresh? Only one page within the app will require a refresh. Can I remove the data url but still have the page (not the home page) within the app auto refresh? If so, how?

So, that's one option. You can also create a Custom URL screen, that points to an HTML page or something somewhere like DropBox, and then update that there. Any screen where you can point to an external resource that you control should be immune to taking the app offline, as it will always have to travel out to the network for its information.
