Refresh opener Window from popup?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 03.2004

I have a HTML page that opens a pop-up window with some Javascript code and then allows the user to enter a single form value. This value is used to update a database record that affects a number of pages. When closing the Popup can I force the ‘opener’ or parent window to refresh in case it’s one of the windows that is affected by the change?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Paul
