How to refresh parent window from the pop-up window?

Hi All,

I am trying to refresh the parent window with the click of a button, which is on pop-up window, with the help of below code:
VF code:-

<script>
if("{!$Request.success}" == "true") {
parent.window.close();
parent.window.opener.location.href = "/{!$Request.id}";
}
</script>

Controller:-
PageReference curPage = ApexPages.currentPage();
curPage.getParameters().put('success','true');
curPage.getParameters().put('id',Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('id'));
curPage.setRedirect(true);
return curPage;

 

This code is working fine in Chrome and Mozilla. However, in IE8, when I click on the button, it is opening a new window
rather than refreshing the parent window.

 

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Thanks Chamil for your response.

 

But that link doesn't resolve my issue. That is just a work around to show the message to refresh the page manually.

 

Thanks
