Methods
reload(cachedopt, nullable, postUsableopt, nullable)
Reloads the current window-location. Differentiates between cached and cache-refreshing reload. Hint: the forcedReload param in window.location.reload is deprecated and not supported anymore in all browsers, so, in order to do a cache busting reload we have to use a trick, by using a POST-reload, since POST never gets cached. If, for some reason, you cannot POST to a URL, I also provided a second, less effective fallback, using "replace".
Hint: depending on your browser a cached reload may keep the current scrolling position in the document, while the uncached variants won't
