Refresh Main Window By Clicking Link In Popup?

leiaah
This is another refresh problem question. The project I'm doing uses tons of frames (I know, some of you will probably advise me not to use frames) and I'm having problems with refreshing the target frames. The problem is, I have a main page (main.html) that is a popup (so that I don't see the address bar and the other toolbar bits in my browser) and there are links in that page that when clicked also pops up a page. What I don't know is how to refresh the main page using a link in the other popup page.

I've tried using this but this only works for frames so I'm really lost here. Anyone out there knows?
CODE
parent.frme_itemTable.location.reload();

maybe this code work:
CODE

opener.frme_itemTable.location.reload();
//or
opener.frme_itemTable.location="Your URL";


please check it on your project!

I believe that it also works (if the window opened as a pop up) if you add to the link the target attribute and point it to "_parent". It is not strict xhtml though...

    I'm working on this now, but I can't even think of how to write it, if it's possible

  3. Refresh Page After Back Button Hit
    (10)
    Hi. I have a page that is dynamically build through DOM manipulation. So, when I browse outside the
    page, and then click back, those dynamically created DOM objects are gone. Since I am also using JSP
    / Servlet technology, I can rebuild this page easily, which I have done. Here is my dilemma. If
    the user leaves the dynamic page, then clicks back on their browser, I need the page they are going
    back to to refresh. I can't figure out how to do this. I've tried using the META tag, but it
    won't do it. Help would be appreciated. Thanks. ....
