No expert on js, but this should work:

// this is the popup: do all your uploading stuff here, then add:


<html><head>

<script>

function close_and_reload_parent()
{
	opener.location.href='url_to_reload';
	self.close();
}

</script>

<title><title></head>

<body onload="close_and_reload_parent()"></body></html>

change ‘url_to_reload’ to the one that you wanna redirect to…

you can change the body-tag with variables, so it doesn’t close until the POST is done

Hope it helps :slight_smile:

That sound like an odd thing to do
