funny you should ask this George, I was just around that area of a page..
this is just the reason why the close/refresh should happen (after form processing)
<cfoutput>
<script language="JavaScript">
if("#VARIABLES.mode#" == "Delete"){
location.href = '#reloadFile#';
}else{
changeParent('#reloadFile#');
}
</script>
</cfoutput>
but this is the JS code that does all the hard work
//function to reload the parent window and close the existing
function changeParent(url){
if(window.opener.name == "detail_window"){
window.opener.parent.document.location.href = url;
}else{
window.opener.document.location.href = url;
}
window.close();
}
also check this nifty idea out

Subject: [cfaussie] Re: [OT] Close popup window when click a link or button
Thanks Mark. Sorry, my original question wasn't clear enough. Since I need to process
the form data on the same page (child window) after submit and then auto close current
window and refresh data on the main window.
