Is there a way to refresh parent top frame from its child top frame? I can only do it if the child window is not in frame.

Thanks
Han
 
There is a meta-tag that u can use to refresh youre window every now and then, see w3c meta tags for more details, else u can use a timeout with a reload.

Actually, I have created a timeout window to inform user before session ends. The javascript resides in the top parent window. Every activities in the parent bottom frame will refresh the top frame. This get more complicated if a child window with frame tries to refresh the parent top frame. No problem refreshing the parent top frame if the child window has no frame.
