I've been using Firefox 2 for a while now, and have been always annoyed that I need to actually press the "reload" button all the time to refresh pages. I do not like any of the add-ons I've found, such as ReloadEvery because they work on a time-interval basis.
What I want is for Firefox to reload a page every time I navigate to it, including when I do so by hitting the "Back" button from another page, and at no other time, unless I push the reload button.
Strangely, my copy of Firefox actually started doing exactly what I want it to do spontaneously, for a few days last week, and has now reverted back to normal. A sugestion I came across on another forum was to alter the <browser.cache.check_doc_frequency> setting in about:config to "1". I tried that, and rebooted, but it hasn't worked.
Anyone else got a clue?
