F5?, by weeble on Jun 13, 2008 19:40:49 GMT 1, Ok, i gotta admit, i dont get the F5 stuff you guys go on about all the time! I take it this is 'refresh' on a PC? If so, why do you keep refreshing? If you click a web page, will it not load eventually? I get the impression you are all like hitting refresh as fast as you can - what's the benefit of that? Or perhaps you just hit refresh after like 1 sec when you see it not loading? Anyone care to elaborate?!? I dont get it! lol

I thought that if you click and wait for a page to load, it eventually would - didn't see why pressing refresh over and over would make the page load any quicker. However someone has now kindly explained to to me how a server reacts to traffic etc, so forgive me for sounding like a complete computer iliterate! lol.
