javascript refreshing parent window in child

currently have a program which runs in this sequence....

main window calls a popup window.. in the popup will process n update.
how can i set to close the window with <a href="javascript:refreshparent(...)">close me </a>

wanted to refresh the parent and close the child window. i got some code from google search but it doesnt seems to work :(

thanks in advance.

Just add self.close() to your href attribute.

Code:

---

<a href="javascript:refreshparent(...);self.close()">close me </a>

---

thank you~
