Refresh a folder

Question

Refresh a folder

How do I refresh a folder and how do I refresh a ftp link? This is something I have no clue about. I know how to refresh a safari page.

Any ideas would be great

There isn't a built-in "refresh" command in Mac OS X for the Finder (as much as I wish there was). But I've had success with stubborn folders that won't refresh in a timely manner by simply creating a new folder in it which will automatically trigger a refresh. You can then delete the newly created folder. I know it's kind of a pain, but it works. Not sure what you mean by "FTP link", care to elaborate?
