From my primary window I'm using window.open to open a new window ...

onLoad="window.open('financialDataStep1a.asp','OrgData','scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=850,height=370')"

This works great the first time I enter the primary window but if I refresh the window or go to another page and come back in and the OrgData window is already open it does not refresh it. Is there a way to force a refresh of the secondary window?

Thanks,
Glenda
 
of course ... I had searched for 30 minutes before posting ... posted ... did one more search ... found solution!!!! For those wanting to know what worked: it was a meta tag in secondary window:

<meta http-equiv=&quot;expires&quot; content=&quot;Tue, 01 Jan 1981 01:00:00 GMT&quot;>

Thanks!!!
