javascript - What is the difference between clicking the refresh button in the browser and selecting the link and pressing enter? -


in web application,i have made pin popup supposed popup , disable rest of screen after timeout. when page refreshed(ctrl+r) or clicking on refresh button, pin popup appears, if link highlighted , enter key pressed, popup not come. how (click on link , press enter) different (ctrl+r) or clicking on refresh button? please in advance.

generally: clicking on link (or tab , enter/space) starts new (get scratch (like open new browser , paste url in address)).

while refresh/ctrl-r resends previous command - if post post.

you can use ctrl-f5 new get.


in addition: element on page (specifically link in case) may have event handler applied can stop default action.

so, if yout link has event handler contains e.preventdefault(); or return false; (eg <a href='...' onclick='return false;'>link</a>) appear nothing happening.

pressing enter/space on focused link same clicking (runs .click() event handler).
