What’s the best way to reload / refresh an iframe?

Question

I would like to reload an

JS

$('.refresh-this-frame').click(function() {
    var thisIframe = $(this).attr('rel');
    var currentState = $(thisIframe).attr('src');
    function removeSrc() {
        $(thisIframe).attr('src', '');
    }
    setTimeout (removeSrc, 100);
    function replaceSrc() {
        $(thisIframe).attr('src', currentState);
    }
    setTimeout (replaceSrc, 200);
});

I initially set out to try and save some time with RWD and cross-browser testing. I wanted to create a quick page that housed a bunch of iframes, organized into groups that I would show/hide at will. Logically you'd want to be able to easily and quickly refresh any given frame.

I should note that the project I am working on currently, the one in use in this test-bed, is a one-page site with indexed locations (e.g. index.html#home). That may have had something to do with why I couldn't get any of the other solutions to refresh my particular frame.

Having said that, I know it's not the cleanest thing in the world, but it works for my purposes. Hope this helps someone. Now if only I could figure out how to keep the iframe from scrolling the parent page each time there's animation inside iframe...

EDIT: I realized that this doesn't "refresh" the iframe like I'd hoped it would. It will reload the iframe's initial source though. Still can't figure out why I couldn't get any of the other options to work..

UPDATE: The reason I couldn't get any of the other methods to work is because I was testing them in Chrome, and Chrome won't allow you to access an iframe's content (Explanation: Is it likely that future releases of Chrome support contentWindow/contentDocument when iFrame loads a local html file from local html file?) if it doesn't originate from the same location (so far as I understand it). Upon further testing, I can't access contentWindow in FF either.

AMENDED JS

$('.refresh-this-frame').click(function() {
    var targetID = $(this).attr('rel');
    var targetSrc = $(targetID).attr('src');
    var cleanID = targetID.replace("#","");     
    var chromeTest = ( navigator.userAgent.match(/Chrome/g) ? true : false );
    var FFTest = ( navigator.userAgent.match(/Firefox/g) ? true : false );      
    if (chromeTest == true) {
        function removeSrc() {
            $(targetID).attr('src', '');
        }
        setTimeout (removeSrc, 100);
        function replaceSrc() {
            $(targetID).attr('src', targetSrc);
        }
        setTimeout (replaceSrc, 200);
    }
    if (FFTest == true) {
        function removeSrc() {
            $(targetID).attr('src', '');
        }
        setTimeout (removeSrc, 100);
        function replaceSrc() {
            $(targetID).attr('src', targetSrc);
        }
        setTimeout (replaceSrc, 200);
    }       
    if (chromeTest == false && FFTest == false) {
        var targetLoc = (document.getElementById(cleanID).contentWindow.location).toString();
        function removeSrc() {
            $(targetID).attr('src', '');
        }
        setTimeout (removeSrc, 100);
        function replaceSrc2() {
            $(targetID).attr('src', targetLoc);
        }
        setTimeout (replaceSrc2, 200);
    }
});
