I have seen this question asked in many forums, however the solution presented worked on selected browsers only. Here’s a solution I have tested that works on IE7, FireFox 3 and Chrome. Hopefully it should work on other browser versions as well!
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Reload/Refresh a Page in jQuery</title>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#Button1').click(function() {
location.reload();
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" />
</body>
</html>
Drop a comment if this script does not work in any browser version.

Great post Dude thanks a lot.
Wow thanks! .. I was wondering how to reload the page after having logged the user via ajax, to give him access to admin links!
location.reload() did exactly what i wanted..
thanks a lot its works cool
Is there any way to reload the page automatically after 30 sec or 1 min using the above code?
@Rezaul
Yes:
function Refresh() {
location.reload();
};
$(document).ready(function() {
setTimeout("Refresh()", 30000); //30 sec.
});
Or just use the metatags and put this in your head section:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30000">
but what if i want to reload only when the page has failed to load? how to detect this..?
Great one :)
Thanks. Needed it for ajax login too ;)
You rock!, saved my day :)
What do you mean by 'failed to load'?
If you are loading stuff via AJAX, you can put reload() in the error handler:
$.ajax({
url:'example.com',
error: function(xhr, textStatus, errorThrown){
location.reload();
}
});
At least the script needs to be correctly loaded in order to do what you want.
Nice Post Bro ... Keep it cool ... ty.
Saved my day :)

Great post Dude thanks a lot.
Hi guys I tried with jquery to add a function to the media dialog close button. His ID is #TB_closeWindowButton and I just added this to the my-scripts.js file
jQuery('#TB_closeWindowButton').click(function() {
location.reload();
});
It doesn't work. Any Ideas???

Sorry forgot to say that I am using wordpress. The media dialog box is the dialog box where you can manage images.
Sorry again

Great post Dude, thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, thank you for your website.
Here goes my problem:
One iframe (let's say A) calling a web jquery code (just alert command, let's say B) to be in diferent iframe.
First time you click on A, it calls to B and working perfect. You click on A for another jquery script code for diferent iframe, it works perfect. You click it again for first choice, and B doesn't work, Jquery script is not read anymore, why? Page is loaded (unless shows up) but alert is not running anymore.
So, in other words, when you call back a page from another, jquery is not running anymore.
I try with reload with unsuccessfully.
Thank you!
Awesome!! Simple but works fine. Thank you for this tutorial! :D
Thank you!
Is there a way to reload with parameter?
Example: mypage.php?message=1
I think my question is the same, is it possible to set a variable with the function? So that the site knows that it has refreshed?
This doesn't work:
location.reload();
window.imgShow=1;
The variable window.imgShow is undefined after the reload. Not that I am surprised but is there a way to get it in? Thanks, I learn a lot from these posts!
Found it!

Good post
if i want to load the same page again then also it is diverting to my next page.
I used more than 1 data grid on page when click on button for enter the data in grid my page is reloaded if i used update panel its also not working wht to do
thanx in advance
I must have missing some information but the title of the post say: How to reload a page using JQuery but the object 'location' is not from the JQuery API. Ok, you use JQuery to attach the click event of the button but in this case, the title should be 'How to link a button with JQuery that will reload a page with Javascript'.
