Are you refreshing the parent or the popup?

the window popup

And you want to know when the pop-up is refreshing and when the popup is opening?

Im not understanding your goal. Maybe this will help you:

/************************/
PARENT PAGE
<body onLoad="window.open(....arguments...)">
/************************/

/************************/
POPUP
<body onLoad="window.reload()"> //Im not sure of the syntax, its easy to find
/************************/

Can you give me some more info?

you can check if the window is open
something like

function check() {
if (myWindow)
if (myWindow.opened)
myWindow.reload()
else
var myWindow = new window.open()
else
var myWindow = new window.open()
}

<body onLoad="check()">
