Refresh button, I have this sliding board for my keyboard and the F5 is too far to reach.

Refresh, I had no idea that F5 did that until just now! To be honest all the F buttons scare me a little, I never know what the **** is gonna happen if I press them so generally I just stay clear of them!

I feel a little bit more complete now!

I generally just use the refresh button, but I do use ctrl + F5 for hard refreshes.
