Hi Larry,

Use the following javascript from the opened window while closing:

window.opener.location.reload();

>>>Hi,

>>>How about this process...
>>>
>>>page1.aspx has datagrid and button and when the user click the button of page1.aspx i want to window.open("page1.aspx") then after closing the page2.aspx i want to refresh the datagrid from page1.aspx automatically just to see my entry in page2.aspx. (NOTE: I used session("myDS") as my container of table or temporary table or dataset).
