How Can I Refresh A Parent Window That Was Not Opened With Js?


Recommended Posts

I have a web page that opens a 'Control Panel' in another tab. On that Control panel are several buttons which I want to redirect the original parent page to a new location. I cannot get it to work using window.opener, however; the new page opens in yet another tab, instead of the original parent.

 

I know that Javascript cannot close a page that was not opened with Javascript, but does that also block the ability to redirect?
