How do I refresh an ASPX form displayed in a frame?

[vvenk]

Hello:

I have a weblayout that uses frames. It has three frames, a header, a column
on the left that displays the menu (that's a aspx form) and a column on the
right that displays the application data.

When I have an application form open in the right frame, I would like to
reload the menu aspx.

Can somebody tell me how I can do this? Thanks.

Assuming that you've assigned a name to each frame...

top.<framename>.document.location = <url>

Hi:

Can you elaborate on your suggestion?

I confess I don't know what Top means. Is it a HTM tag or a vb.net command?

The frames are named. The name of the frame that displays the menu is
"contents" and the menu form is "navigation.aspx"

Thanks for your help.

top = window.top

It's the top most page in the current window.
For example, you could have a page nested in a page nested in a page
(using IFrames) etc and you could always refer to the top most page
(your frame layout) from any of those pages using window.top.

If you simply want to reload the contents of the window using the exact
same contents you can use top.<framename>.document.location =
window.location. This will include the original query string. If you
want to exclude the query string use window.location.pathname.
