关闭弹出窗口并刷新父窗口不起作用

Question

All of a sudden my simple javascript code to close a pop-up and refresh the parent window stopped working in Google Chrome browsers on iPad and iPhone devices. It still works if we use the built in safari browser on the same devices.

Any reason why someone could see this a wouldn't work in chrome? And by not working I mean that the pop-up closes and the parent window doesn't refresh.

 <!---Close -Reload The Window --->
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function CloseWindow() {
            window.close();
            window.opener.location.reload(true);
        }
    </script>

            <a href="" onClick="javascript: return CloseWindow();">Signature Captured - Close Window</a>

Answer 1

you cant refresh page after close the window

<script type="text/javascript">
        function CloseWindow() {   
            window.opener.location.reload(true);
            window.close();
        }
    </script>

another Type , I test it, it works. If you get the problem again, your browser may cause the problem.

 <script type="text/javascript">
        function CloseWindow() {
            window.close();
            window.opener.location = window.opener.window.location;
        }
    </script>

Answer 2

we located this function in the main page and call it from the popup window and it works we commented out this post - but i don't see any reference to the setTimeout we did.. so I decided to point this out and maybe it will help someone else

main page

function reloadPage() {
 if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf(' Chrome') > -1) {
    setTimeout(function () {
        location.reload(true);
    }, 0);
 } else {
    location.reload(true);
 }
}

popup page

window.top.opener.reloadPage();
