I have a website with frames. I need to hard refresh the frame view. I know Ctrl-F5 will hard refresh the entire page, but a Ctrl sequence doesn't seem to work for a frame view. Basically I don't want the form data to re-populate when I refresh the frame view. How would I do this?

If you want to refresh an individual frame, you can use the right-click context menu. If you right-click the frame, there should be a "This Frame" item with a fly-out menu that includes a Reload just for that frame.

If you want to bypass the cache and fully re-retrieve the framed page, I believe you hold Shift while selecting Reload from the menu.

Does this help?

@jscher2000 thanks for your suggestion, however that method did not work. I am looking to by-pass the cache as you suggested.
