refresh onresize problem

belocin · Mar 13, 2002

I have a menu that is dynamically positioned. The problem is when the user resizes the browser, I want the page to reload so the menu moves accordingly. It's not refreshing automatically, and what I tried doesn't work, can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

This is what I tried:

<script language="JavaScript">
function testresize()
{
if (onresize)
{ window.location.reload(); }
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="testresize(); ">

I ususally use a slightly different technique.
in the javascript section in th ehead of the doc I place the following:

Code:

window.onResize = reloadIt;
function reloadIt() {
	document.location = document.location;
}

I think this code would also work pretty nicely:

Code:

if (document.layers)
 onresize=document.close;

It closes the document when the page is resized. Closing the document forces it to be rerendered.
