jquery - Refresh parent window from child window using javascript

Question

I am opening new pop-up page in new window. Now When I am pressing a html input button from child window, I want to close this child window then I want to refresh the parent window. How I can do using javascript?

Can you anyone suggest me the solution?

Answer 1

try something like this:

function closeAndRefresh(){
  opener.location.reload(); // or opener.location.href = opener.location.href;
  window.close(); // or self.close();
}
