Forcing html page to reload after a little wait

I have a html page A and a link on the page that opens page B in a new window. How do I reload page A when clicking and opening this link?

EDIT:

I should have been clearer. Page B opens in a new window, not as a popup. The corresponding hyperlink has its target attribute equal to _blank. Taking the clue from the answers I got (thanks guys!), I tried setting onclick = "window.location.reload ()" and it works great.

However, I have a problem. Actually another question. How to ensure that page A reload is waiting for the page in the new window (page B) to load?

Something like that:



<a href="javascript:window.open('pageB.htm');window.location.reload();">open page b</a>

The easiest way is to do

<a href="# " onClick="window.open('newPage.htm','window','width=400,height=200')">link</a>


If I remember correctly that I should open the window, then, since the refund was not canceled, reload the page load.

I'm not entirely sure if this is what you want based on your wording, but if you want to reload the open box from a link in the popup, try

self.opener.location.href = self.opener.location.href;

Edit based on your new comments, just use the above code in the load body of the new window

<body onload="self.opener.location.href = self.opener.location.href;">

You can use setTimeout()

to delay reboot.

Try the following:

<script type="text/javascript">
function openPage(elem) {
    function reloadCurrentPage() {
        location.reload();
    }

    var page = window.open(elem.href, '_blank');
    page.onload = function() {
        reloadCurrentPage();
    }

    if (/MSIE/.test(navigator.userAgent)) { // fix for IE
        var timer = setInterval(function() {
            if (page.document.readyState == 'complete') {
                clearInterval(timer);
                reloadCurrentPage();
            }
        }, 100);
    }
}
</script>

<p><a href="second.html" onclick="openPage(this); return false;">second.html</a></p>
