Refresh a Web Page - sidekick iDThis is a featured page

You can refresh (reload from the originating server) the Web page you are currently viewing in either of two ways:
  • Press MENU Refresh a Web Page - sidekick iD - Sidekick then select Refresh.
  • Use the keyboard shortcut by pressing Refresh a Web Page - sidekick iD - Sidekick R.

Note about "Automatic" Refreshing: The device has no knowledge about the content being displayed on any given Web page; the Web page itself must contain instructions about how the browser should handle content expiration. Unfortunately, many Web pages (including some hosting news) contain no such instructions, so these pages refresh automatically only when a desktop/laptop computer user opens a new Web browser "session" and connects to their site. Because the Web Browser on your device has no notion of "session", Web pages that do not contain explicit instructions about handling content expiration will be cached (saved) on your device for a number of days. This behavior makes your device extremely efficient for those pages that actually should cache (the majority of pages).
