Refresh parent after child action on inline Visualforce Page

Hello Abhinav,

You can achieve this by adding this javascript code snippet into your parent VF page.

var popupwindow;
var timer;
//call this function onclick of custom button
function popup(){
popupwindow = open('/apex/ChlidPageName','Popup','height=400,width=400,left=100,top=100,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,status=no');
timer = setInterval(checkWindow, 500);
}
function checkWindow(){
if(popupwindow.closed){
alert("Child window closed");
clearInterval(timer);
window.location.reload();
}
}

I hope this might help you.

Hi Abhinav,

Apex Class:-

public class Opp_Ext {
private ApexPages.StandardController stdController;
public String redirectUrl {public get; private set;}
public Boolean shouldRedirect {public get; private set;}

public Opp_Ext(ApexPages.StandardController stdController) {
this.stdController = stdController;
shouldRedirect = false;
}

public PageReference doStuffAndRedirect() {
shouldRedirect = true;
redirectUrl = stdController.view().getUrl();
return null;
}
}

Visualforce Page:-

<apex:page standardController="Opportunity" extensions="Opp_Ext" >
<apex:form >
<apex:commandButton value="Do Stuff" action="{!doStuffAndRedirect}" rerender="redirectPanel" />
<apex:outputPanel id="redirectPanel" >
<apex:outputText rendered="{!shouldRedirect}">
<script type="text/javascript">
window.top.location.href = '{!redirectUrl}';
</script>
</apex:outputText>
</apex:outputPanel>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>

Hope this helps.
