Reload parent window from child window

Question

  top.frames.location.reload(false);

Answer 2

Prevents previous data from been resubmitted. Tested in Firefox and Safari.

top.frames.location.href = top.frames.location.href;

No jQuery is necessary in this situation.

window.opener.location.reload(false);

Answer 4

This working for me:

  window.opener.location.reload()
  window.close();

In this case Current tab will close and parent tab will refresh.

Answer 5

this will work

window.location.assign(window.location.href);

Answer 6

This will work for refresh parent window from child window

window.opener.location.reload(true);

for some version of IE this will not work so you can set some delay

window.setTimeout(window.opener.location.reload(true), 3000);
