i have page that gets popped up (joinframed.htm), which is a page consisting of 3 frames (each frame has a different source page), one of which has a "close window" link. that link performs this action:
window.opener.location.reload();
window.close();

the problem is this:
the frame with the window.close link does not recognize the opener. when the link is clicked, the opener does not reload. the javascript code does work (if you right click on the image, choose "open link in new window", then click the new link, the opener reloads).

i have a feeling that the body tags in each of the frames mess up the windows. any thoughts?
