Hi Jeronimo ,
Thank you for using MSDN Newsgroup! My name is Steven, and I'll be
assisting you on this issue.
From your description, your question is how to refresh a parent page from a
sub page which is located in a <iframe> tag in the parent page.
If there is anything I misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.
As for this quesiton, I think we can solve it using the client side
javascript. Generally, when we want to retrieve the parent page's object
handle in a sub page( in <iframe> or <frame> ), we can use the
"window.par ent" object. If
we want to refresh a page, we can use set the
"window.locatio n.href=window.l ocation.href" to load the page's url again.
So combine the twos, we can use the below javascript code to refresh a
parent page:
"window.parent. location.href = window.parent.l ocation.href;"
Also, since you determine whether to refresh the parent page in the sub
page's serverside Page_Load event handler, you need to add the above
javascript block into the page in Page_Load. You can use the
"Page.RegisterS tartupScript" function to register a client script block.
For example:
Page.RegisterSt artupScript("Re freshParent","< script
language='javas cript'>RefreshP arent()</script>");
You can call this when you need to refresh the parent page in the Page_Load
event handler.
In addition, to make the above things clearly, I've made two demo pages,
you may try them out if you like:
------------parent aspx page:-----------------------
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<title>WebForm1 </title>

-------------------Sub page code-behind class

public class SubPage : System.Web.UI.P age

private void Page_Load(objec t sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
// Put user code to initialize the page here
System.Random rnd = new Random();
int i = rnd.Next();
if(i%2 == 0) //simulate determine whether to refresh parent page
{
Page.RegisterSt artupScript("Re freshParent","< script
language='javas cript'>RefreshP arent()</script>");
}
}
override protected void OnInit(EventArg s e)
{
//
// CODEGEN: This call is required by the ASP.NET Web Form Designer.
//
InitializeCompo nent();
base.OnInit(e);
}
private void InitializeCompo nent()
{
this.Load += new System.EventHan dler(this.Page_ Load);
}
}
