reload a page with argument

Ike
Suppose I have a frame like 123bottom.html and within it, I want to promt
the user for a response (in the <HEAD>) like

var ans = prompt("What is your name?");

and then reload the page (via, say window.location.reload() ?)

using the argument of the value of ans appended onto the url so that, in
effect, say, I am calling the new frame as

123bottom.html?ans=Ike

Can someone show me how I need to call the page again, itself, like this
once I have the value for ans? Thanks, Ike (himself)

in BODY, not head

<form name="f1">
<input type="hidden" name="ans">
</form>

<script type="text/javascript">
var a = prompt("What is your name?");
document.forms["f1"].elements["ans"].value=a;
document.forms["f1"].elements["ans"].submit();
</script>

Default action of a form is to submit with GET (url) to same page,
resulting in a "reload" with the url appended with ans=whatever

If you're changing anything, you're not actually a reloading it,
you're changing the location:

window.location="123bottom.html?ans=Ike".
