i can do to refresh the main window once i click on a button..i really

Do onething. onclick of the refresh link/button, submit the form

to itself. (i.e) action page is nothing but y'r current page. 



You can do it in the folllowing way:



If it is the link - 

<a

href="javascript:document.formname.action='currentpage.asp';document.formnam

e.submit()">

Refresh</a>



If it is a button - 

<input type="button" value="refresh"

onclick="document.formname.action='currentpage.asp';document.formname.submit

()">
