Forgive me if this has been covered before, but I've not previously spent any time worrying about technical issues with FT since the new board went up.
With the old board, although you could use the current url, and get the forums in what amounts to a frame, with a banner menu over the top, many of us FT OT's (that's old timers) preferred to use the alternate "webflyer" url for access, which eliminated the banner and provided more screen space.
On the new board, the
http://www.flyertalk.com/milesfr.shtml url does not change as you navigate through the board, and, as a result (not being an html-guy, I assume this is a result), "refresh" takes you back to the top screen. OTOH, I know there are web sites where "refresh" actually refreshes the frame you are looking at. It there any way to give us back productive use of "refresh"?
