Refresh Internet Explorer_Server from handler

Is it possible to force Internet Explorer_Server to refresh it content? What I have is a handler to that object in external application (like in my similar question)

I found a nice tutorial on CodeProject that shows how to do that in MFC, but I would like to do that from C#.

My question is: How to refresh Internet Explorer_Server that is hosted in external application.

I can't test it right now, but I assume you are already referencing mshtml assembly in your C# project?

I am betting if you experiment with the IHTMLDocument2.open method you might find a way to do this. I am running out to the airport, so I can't experiment with his or test it right now. But this link has some useful info (note: while the link refers to win API code, that code is modeled in the .net implementation through IHTMLDocuement2 interface in the mshtml assembly).

msdn on IHTMLDocument2.open

I have had good luck using the mshtml assembly in C# for other operations, although it took a little work and trial and error. Pay particular attention to the parameter for _BSTR as _SELF, and pass the current uri.
