I have two iframes on a page and one makes changes to the other but the other iframe doesn't show the change until I refresh. Is there an easy way to refresh this iframe with jQuery?

<div class="project">
  <iframe id="currentElement" class="myframe" name="myframe" src="http://somesite.com/something/new"></iframe>
</div>
