在HTML上按下按钮后，如何重新创建重新加载问题

Question

I had an issue with my company's Web product, when a button is pressed the whole page is reloaded. This issue is similar to this one , I tried the solution and it works.

Now I need to confirm the behavior on the versions of Internet Explorer that does not run on Windows XP (but some of our clients uses). All of the PC in my office still runs Windows XP, and with strict policy there's no way I can use my home PC or laptop to access that product.

I've tried to recreate the issue by creating a small HTML codes containing a button. However the refreshing does not occur. I missed some criteria, and I don't know what it is. So I'd like ask what is required to makes it reload the page when a button is pressed. The button on the page is constructed using <button> tag.

This should work in older browsers, too:

<button onclick="location.reload(true);">reload</button>
