Page refresh with onfocus

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Oct 31.2004

(I’m sure this is simple BUT it is eluding me right now. I have seen it done elsewhere.)

I have a page (MainMenu) that generates sub-page links based on the user search criteria,
Each of these links open on a new window for edits which COULD take them out of the search parameters.
So…
How do I make the MainMenu page re-run the search for a complete and correct listing when the user returns to it?

I have tried the <body onFocus=”reloadThisPage()”> and all this does is cause the page to continously reload.

(reloadThisPage gets the parameters and pastes them into the URL)

@javaNoobieNov 01.2004 — When user submits the edited content, append the fields and close the window. Probably like this,
<i>
</i>window.opener.location.href = 'page.htm?field1=' + field1 + '&amp;field2=' + field2;
self.close();
