RE: [OT] synchronous form submit in a popup so parent refreshes p rope rly

[Paul McCulloch <pa...@axiossystems.com>]

You could make the response from the submit be an html page which executes
the relevant (parent.reload; close) Javascript. 

Alternatively you could submit the form on the popup window so that the
response of this submission was displayed in the parent window (via the
'target' attribute of the form tag). You'd want to define the forward for
this action to be the refresh action you want your parent to perform.
