Ctrl + F5 in jquery to clear browser cache

Question

How to deep refresh window in jquery like you press f5 twice.currently i m using this.

<script>
window.onload = function() {
if(!window.location.hash) {
    window.location = window.location + '#loaded';
    window.location.reload();
}
}
</script>

Thanks ! and it should not take much time to refresh. my webpage is in php.

Solution

I think the reload function can take an argument that forces full refresh. ie:

window.location.reload(true);

For reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Location/reload

It only works in firefox

@professor-abronsius you might want to consider removing this answer. The linked documentation indicates that this only works in FF and is only because of a mistake. It should always be window.location.reload() without arguments.
