Refreshing or Redirecting Opener Window

Is it possible to redirect or refresh the contents of Page1 from within
Page2 where Page2 was opened by Page1?

Thanks Steve. I must be overlooking something simple - I get the error
"object doesn't support this property or method
'window.opener. document.reload '"

I get similar results when I try to set the location of the opener or
attempt the redirect method of the opener. Why is it that, if 'opener'
returns a reference to a window object, intellisense does not display a list
of 'window' object members for the 'opener' object?

Some client side javascript similar to this should do the trick:

window.opener.d ocument.reload( true);

Is it possible to (via Javascript) refresh a parent page from a child page. 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. Thanks in advance. Steve

Hello, I'm having problems refreshing a main window, and am not sure really whether the solution will be Javascript or PHP related. Firstly, I have a main file that calls a pop-up box which enables comments to be made about certain images on the page. The pop-up makes a connection to a MySQL database and the existing comments are put into a PHP array and echoed to the screen.
