    Obviously you know that. What was I thinking, it's feckin' basic. My apologies.

    i use the lounge button. however, under internet options>general>settings i have the "check for newer versions of stored pages" box checked as "automatically". AFAIK, using the lounge button, and having that box checked might not always refresh the page. Not to mention the proxy server cache thing mentioned by JP.

    Do you see what I did there? Because like, the thread title just asks how do you refresh, but doesn't specify what you refresh. See?

    I also think I might have got it wrong, I think I should have said "douche" instead of "douche bag".
