Is it possible to refresh a parent browser window when a "child"
browser window has been closed using the [X] button in the upper right
corner of the browser?
When I refer to child window, I mean that a link within a "parent" window has opened a new browser window.
I have a parent page which I don't have control of. I call my child page from parent page, perform some operations and once I click update child window should close and parent window should be refreshed.Everything seems to work fine except the parent page not refreshing.I tried using window.opener.location.reload(true). But it makes a postback in the parent page and so the values that I update are lost because it makes a postback with the previous values.I tried window.opener.document.locationwindow.opener.document.location. But this doesn't refresh my parent page.

How can I trap, that on closing a parent window the child window should
also get closed.
I'm having trouble with Safari. After i close a popup it does not focus on the parent window. I have been looking around and i think its this sort of thing i need 'javascript:window.opener.focus()" target="_self"' but tbh i'm not in anyway a javascript whizz, so im a little confused.
Here is my current code to close the child window
document.write("<input name='close' class='button popup' type='button' value='Close Window' onclick='window.close()' id='close'>"
So i need to somehow, add in the .opener thing to that.

window using IE. I use IE 6.0.
I use this code in a popup to refresh the parent browser. It works fine
as long as the user actually clicks on this link but does not work in
cases where the user closes the child popup through the Windows X
(close) button. Any way to accomodate this also?
I'm trying to create an HTML page that contains two frames.
The bottom frame should simply be some website, but the top frame needs
to have a close link to kill the window. I tried calling
'document.window.close()' from the child frame, but without success. I
then tried putting the 'close()' call in the parent page and calling it
from the child, but still without success. Code:

If you click 'Edit' it will pull up a seperate window that has the information in an editable format (with forms and such). The user/admin edits the information and clicks 'Submit' it loads up another page in that child window and changes it within the database.. after this has happened, it closes the child window. Now after the child window has closed, I need the parent window to refresh to allow the changes to be viewed.

I have an app that displays a list of items that the user has authority to
change. If the user selects one of the items, another window is opened
containing the details of the item. If the user changes any of the details
of the item I'd like to refresh the original (list) page.
I need to know how to open a pop up and close the main window without
a prompt in Firefox 2 and IE 7. Anybody have any ideas on how to do
that.
I currently have this and it works in IE 6 and Firefox 1.5:
function windowClose()
{
if(navigator.appName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer")
{
this.focus();self.opener = this;self.close();
}
else
{
window.open('','_parent',''); window.close();
}
}
Opening a link in the browser has to open a new window with same url content (url cannot be hardcoded)
and the opened window must close the parent window and should not have any of the status bar,url bar or menu bar.
I have written this code in a html page in the body onload event
var WIN_WIDTH = 700;
var WIN_HEIGHT = 500;
var MENUBAR_HEIGHT = 10;
var TOOLBAR_HEIGHT = 50;
var STARTUPBAR_HEIGHT = 10;
var heightOfBars = MENUBAR_HEIGHT + TOOLBAR_HEIGHT + STARTUPBAR_HEIGHT;
var xPos = (screen.width/2) - (WIN_WIDTH/2);
var yPos = (screen.height/2) - (WIN_HEIGHT/2) - heightOfBars;
var prop='menubar=no,scrollbars=no,status=no,locationbar=no,'+'toolbar=no,resizable=yes,width='+WIN_WIDT H+',height='+WIN_HEIGHT + ',left='+xPos+',top='+ yPos;
window.open (location.href,'EKMIS',prop);
//closes parent window without any confirmation
window.opener.opener=''
opener.window.close();
But the problem is opened window goes into unending loop..

I have created and opened a child window called "checkwin" and have written some data to it. If the data is valid, I want the user to click on the 'CONFIRM' button on the child window, at which time I want the "submit()" function for the form on the parent window to be executed. If the data is invalid the user clicks on 'MODIFY' and I want focus to return to a field on the parent form. However, when I click on the "CONFIRM" or "MODIFY" buttons on the child window, nothing happens. Here is the code:
checkwin.document.write("</td></tr><tr><td align='right'><input type='button' value='CONFIRM'
onclick='opener.document.personnel_form.submit()'></td><td></td><td><input type='button' value='MODIFY'
onclick='opener.document.personnel_form.first_name.focus()'></td></tr></table>")
I'm trying to create code to close the child window I'm creating if the parent window is closed. Here's my code so far:
function openWindow() {
var newWin = window.open(); // open the new window
newWin.document.write('<h1>Child Window</h1>
[Code]...
The above openWindow function is used in this event: <input type="button" name="btn" onclick="openWindow()"value="Open a new window" />
I can generate the new window fine. I just can't close it if the parent window is closed.
My scenario is like this.
1. Click on button and pop up child window.
2. Select multiple checkbox and submit array which send back to parent window and value store in a hidden variable.

I have parent page with 10 child window and i want to close all child window when click on close session button on parent but first i need to check whether any child window open or not after that action should be done for close the child window.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAt the moment, I have a page listing keywords associated with an image. The user can click an 'add keyword' link, which loads a child window where they have a form to select & add extra keywords. Now, at the moment when they submit the form, the page reloads the parent window using an onload event. However, I would prefer it if it only reloaded the DIV which holds their keyword list.
My thinking was I could do it with AJAX or something, but I can't find anywhere that even mentions if it's possible. Can anyone help? Is this possible, or am I too ambitious?
