Re: OT - javascript question..

Yes, this is way OT.... you can refer back to the original window with opener (or it may me window.opener) I used it once to change the location of the parent window with something like: <SCRIPT language="JavaScript"> <!-- function blah(url,close) { opener.location = url; window.close(); } // --> </SCRIPT> <A HREF="javascript:blah('something_else.html');">show me something else</A> I'm thinking opener.location.reload() or opener.location.reload(1) or opener.location.replace('my_url') might do the same job, but if you know what URL the script should refresh to (ie, load the same URL again), then the function above should work as is.
