Is there a refresh button that I'm not seeing? If not, I think it would be a good idea to have one. I use the frames version of this site and I may start out in "Students" and then go to "Administration", but if I want to refresh the "Administration" page and push the reload button on my browser, it reloads back to the page I started on (Students). I've found a way to refresh only the one frame, but it takes 3 steps to do. Could you possibly add a button that will refresh only the left frame? It would really make my life easier. Or is this just a sign that I'm being lazy? ;-)
Just a suggestion. Do with it as you will.

Are you running Windows? Did you try right clicking in the frame then selecting refresh from the contextual menu that appears? That would only be two steps.

That would only be two steps.I'm using Firefox (I can't stand IE!) and you have to right-click, then go down to "this frame" then go down that menu to "refresh". It's not that it kills me to do that, it's just that it would be soooooo much easier to just click a button. Kind of like the "Previous 'new' indicators" or "Find posts specifically for you" buttons.
And when I'm at my parent's house I use Safari on their Mac. There is no right-click refresh capability in that browser. You can only hit the reload button. The problem is that every browser is going to do things a little differently. Buttons are our friends. :-P
Who knows...maybe no one else cares but me. Just thought I'd throw the idea out there. I'll live either way. :-)

Click on the name of the current board in either the left frame (among the list of boards at the top and bottom of the page, in bold) or the right one (also at the top and bottom).
