I have a pop-up window a user logs into, once they are logged in successful, I have a message that has a link to close the window. But I want it to not only close that pop up window, but I want it to refresh the webpage the pop-up window was clicked on.

So the page can refresh to see that there is a valid login session for that user.

Is this possible w/ jQuery?

In your popup window:

$('#closeButton').click(function(e) {

    window.opener.location.reload(true);

    window.close();

    e.preventDefault();

});

Reloads the parent page and closes the popup.
