refreshing parent window after closing child window

[Vinutha]

Hi,

I am using javascript to close my child window and after closing child window, i want to refresh parent window.

So, this is the script function i am using,

<script language="JavaScript">
function closeAndRefresh()
{
window.opener.location.href="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/main/billing/billRecords.jsf";
            self.close();
}
</script>
 

This is the commandbutton code i am using,

<h:commandButton value="OK" onclick="closeAndRefresh()" />

So, How to resolve this......

Thanks,
Vinutha

What you could do is run a function on the parent page which refreshes after a few seconds or even one second using setTimeout, then close the child window. Perhaps you could check that the child window is indeed closed before refreshing the parent window.
