Refresh or close after form submission

[htmlnoob112233]

Where would I put that thought.

Its part of the design.

You can put it in the form action page:

window.onload = function() {
    parent.location.reload();
}

Thank you very much.
Thats the one.. nearly, as this runs the whole page in a loop :P
I just added

framename.document.

So the whole code reads

window.onload = function() { 
    parent.framename.document.location.reload(); 
}

Once again, thank you very much for your help, I do appreciate it. :)

The only problem I have is that it makes the target frame a bit jumpy when it loads as it has to load twice the first time round (initial load, and refresh).

So is it possible to only run the script when the button is submitted?
I have tried the following but it did not work.

<input type="submit" value="Go" onSubmit="parent.framename.document.location.reload();">

Use PHP code to decide if the code should exist. Only have the JavaScript code run if the form has been submitted, e.g.

<?php 
    if (isset(...)) {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
...
</script>
<?php
    }
?>

It does not refresh when clicked, what have I done wrong?

This is the code in the form frame.

<?php  
    if (isset($var)) { 
?> 
<script type="text/javascript"> 
$var window.onload = function() {  
    parent.frameName.document.location.reload();  
}  
</script> 
<?php 
    } 
?>

No, it doesn't quite work like that. You need to replace $var with the posted variable in PHP, e.g. $_POST['submit']. Also remove $var on line 5. If you have any more problems on that front, ask in the PHP forum.
