I have a page where there is a button called 'Add video' .Clicking this button opens another window to upload the video . After upload button is pushed this new window displays 'the file has been uploaded' with a 'Continue button' .The onclick event of Continue button closes the window .But at the same time I want the window where I have the 'Add video' button to be reloaded.

I tried this with 'document.parent.reload()' on the onclick event of 'continue' button. but the reqired window is not reloaded..
Is there something that went wrong in this.

Please help me.

parent is for frames, you need to use window.opener
