...one more question....
can this be applied if using the window.showModalDialog method?
I have tried this but get an error when closing the child window as it tries to refresh the parent window in its unload event
//this causes the error...
any ideas?

Code:
<body onunload="window.opener.location.href = window.opener.location.href;">any ideas?

I don't think it will work - I think that modal dialogs have a different close method. Check out the MSDN docs (msdn.microsoft.com, or search on Google) to find out.
Hope this helps,
