Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 06.2006

Hi guys:

I have a main page with a list of links on it. When someone clicks one of the links it pops up a small window attached to that link. Now the question — how to update the main page after a click on one of the links in the list? I need that to update status of a line in the list from “unviewed” to “viewed on …” and then the date.

Can someone suggest how to do that updating with JavaScript?

PS. The link to open a popup window would be:

[code=html]<a href=”#” onclick=’window.open(page_link,null,”scrollbars=1,toolbar=1,resizable=1,width=740,height=500,left=50,top=50″);return false;’>[/code]

@phpnoviceJul 06.2006 — From the popup window:

top.opener.top.location.reload(true)

@dc2000authorJul 06.2006 — OK. But from a parent of a pop-up?

@dc2000authorJul 07.2006 — Thanks. Tried both.
top.opener.top.location.reload(true)return "Access denied". Next one works fine top.location.reload(true); but it needs a delay because it may reload page faster than a pop-up will be able to load up. Is there any way to sync that?

Success!
