Question

i hope anybody can help me …

index.php (http://jsbin.com/elocek)

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() { 
    $('.open').popupWindow({ 
    windowURL:'popup.php', 
    windowName:'external' 
    });
 });
</script>

popup.php (http://jsbin.com/agepog)

<script type="text/javascript"> 
$(document).ready(function() { 

    $('.close').click(function() {
        window.close();
    });

    });
</script>

so you can see 2 files, the “index.php” is only a snippet from the whole one but you can see the jquery etc. my problem is i would open a popup/modal-box whatever – see the new window and would like to reload/refresh/replace the mainwindow (index.php) if i close the popup/modal-box … is this possible?

the index.php has some additional vars e.q. index.php?site=news&text=….

(sorry for my bad english)

Try this

$(document).ready(function() { 

    $('.close').click(function() {
        window.opener.location.reload(true);
        window.close();
    });

    });
