I have an window.open for a form to upload a profile picture, how can I make the main window refresh after the file has been uploaded or the file window closed.

Just trying to make it so that the user doesnt have to manually refresh to see the picture in place.

<A href="<img src=" border=0></a>

put this onload code in your body of the popup after the file is upload in the popup change MainWindowName to the name of your MAIN window name

Code: 
<body onload="top.MainWindowName.location.reload(1)">

i think the safest way would be for you to have a button or link on the popup that says "Close this window." the code would look like this:

Code: 
<a href="#" onclick="opener.location.reload(true);window.close();return false;">Close This Window</a>

The problem I see with that... is what if they hit the X instead of the close window link...
