How can I refresh a page with JQuery?

How can I possibly trigger a reload of a page using either something in Django views.py or with Jquery? Basically, I want the page to automatically reload the same way when you click on the URL bar of a web browser and press enter does.

Thanks, Alex

In javascript you can refresh the page as:

Don't go overboard with automatic full page refreshes; they're expensive. Consider performing AJAX calls at a reasonable interval to refresh just the information you need.
