I have seen this question asked in many forums, however the solution presented worked on selected browsers only. Here’s a solution I have tested that works on IE7, FireFox 3 and Chrome. Hopefully it should work on other browser versions as well!
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Reload/Refresh a Page in jQuery</title>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#Button1').click(function() {
location.reload();
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" />
</body>
</html>
Drop a comment if this script does not work in any browser version.
if we must reload the page using a button, it's just the same like using the F5 key :D however, nice tuts :D
ReplyDeleteGreat post Dude thanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteWow thanks! .. I was wondering how to reload the page after having logged the user via ajax, to give him access to admin links!
ReplyDeletelocation.reload() did exactly what i wanted..
thanks a lot its works cool
ReplyDeleteIs there any way to reload the page automatically after 30 sec or 1 min using the above code?
ReplyDelete@Rezaul
ReplyDeleteYes:
function Refresh() {
location.reload();
};
$(document).ready(function() {
setTimeout("Refresh()", 30000); //30 sec.
});
Or just use the metatags and put this in your head section:
ReplyDelete<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30000">
but what if i want to reload only when the page has failed to load? how to detect this..?
ReplyDeleteGreat one :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. Needed it for ajax login too ;)
ReplyDeleteYou rock!, saved my day :)
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean by 'failed to load'?
ReplyDeleteIf you are loading stuff via AJAX, you can put reload() in the error handler:
$.ajax({
url:'example.com',
error: function(xhr, textStatus, errorThrown){
location.reload();
}
});
At least the script needs to be correctly loaded in order to do what you want.
Nice Post Bro ... Keep it cool ... ty.
ReplyDeleteSaved my day :)

ReplyDeleteHi guys I tried with jquery to add a function to the media dialog close button. His ID is #TB_closeWindowButton and I just added this to the my-scripts.js file
ReplyDeletejQuery('#TB_closeWindowButton').click(function() {
location.reload();
});
It doesn't work. Any Ideas???

Sorry forgot to say that I am using wordpress. The media dialog box is the dialog box where you can manage images.
ReplyDeleteSorry again

ReplyDeleteHi, thank you for your website.
ReplyDeleteHere goes my problem:
One iframe (let's say A) calling a web jquery code (just alert command, let's say B) to be in diferent iframe.
First time you click on A, it calls to B and working perfect. You click on A for another jquery script code for diferent iframe, it works perfect. You click it again for first choice, and B doesn't work, Jquery script is not read anymore, why? Page is loaded (unless shows up) but alert is not running anymore.
So, in other words, when you call back a page from another, jquery is not running anymore.
I try with reload with unsuccessfully.
Thank you!
Awesome!! Simple but works fine. Thank you for this tutorial! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteIs there a way to reload with parameter?
Example: mypage.php?message=1
I think my question is the same, is it possible to set a variable with the function? So that the site knows that it has refreshed?
ReplyDeleteThis doesn't work:
location.reload();
window.imgShow=1;
The variable window.imgShow is undefined after the reload. Not that I am surprised but is there a way to get it in? Thanks, I learn a lot from these posts!
Found it!

ReplyDeleteGood post
ReplyDeleteif i want to load the same page again then also it is diverting to my next page.
ReplyDeleteI used more than 1 data grid on page when click on button for enter the data in grid my page is reloaded if i used update panel its also not working wht to do
ReplyDeletethanx in advance
I must have missing some information but the title of the post say: How to reload a page using JQuery but the object 'location' is not from the JQuery API. Ok, you use JQuery to attach the click event of the button but in this case, the title should be 'How to link a button with JQuery that will reload a page with Javascript'.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your code, is a great one. But i have a problem implementing it in php. I have html and php as different files. Now i want to implement it in php. so that when the php checks for error, and if there is error, it should reload to the html file with form values retained.
ReplyDeleteThanks in advace
is there any method in php which work like update panel control in asp.net
ReplyDeleteHi team,
ReplyDeleteI have one reqerment
am developing one online exam quiz application , when i answering questions (like I am answered 2 two questions) at this time am refresed the page that time no page will not to home, even i refreshes exam is contine ..
explaination :
If User refreshes a current running session of any Assessment , then system should bring User back to the same point in Exam UI where he/she was and save all the assessment details till that point.
(Example If User is at 4th question of a lesson, has answered 3 out 10 questions then if User refreshes the browser assessment , System should bring User to the Fourth question and save details of the previous three answered questions)
