A button to refresh the page

We run our knack app in a chrome window without an URL or other browser function buttons but I would like a refresh button.

Does anybody know / willing to share how to add a refresh button on the knack pages through CSS/Java?

Thanks

I'm trying to figure out how to do something similar to this too (and trying to learn javascript at the same time)

I haven't gotten around to try this.. but I think if we piece these 2 info together.. it might work.. maybe?

1. To create the button

Extracted from: https://support.knack.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/220715468-Add-Next-Previous-buttons-in-Details-view

//view_YY is the view that is the 'view more detail' from the table
$(document).on('knack-view-render.view_YY', function (event, view,data) {

var button_next = document.createElement("button");
button_next.innerHTML = "Next";
var button_prev =document.createElement("button");
button_prev.innerHTML = "Previous";

//Place Buttons somewhere
var body = document.getElementById(view.key);
body.appendChild(button_next)
body.appendChild(button_prev)<br><br>//see original forum post for rest of the code</pre>
