Refresh Frameset

I have a site with a frame:

<frameset cols="69%,31%">
  <frame src="main.php" />
  <frame src="result.html" />
</frameset>

Its looks like this:

------------|-----------
            |
search      | result1
            | result2
            | result3
            |
            |
            |
            |
------------|---------

Here is how it workrs (it is much more complex)

Main.php (left frame) uses a search (like a search engine) result.html (right frame) , only reads what main.php founds, so:

What I want to do is refresh result.html from main.php. How can I do this???

NOTE: I do not want to autorefresh result.html (right frame) with AJAX timer or something. The refresh must be triggered by main.php (left frame)

It's simple.

first, you need to assign "name" attribute in your frame like:

<frameset cols="69%,31%">
<frame src="main.php" />
<frame src="result.html" /> </frameset>

In main.php

<script> function btn_reset() { parent.result.location.reload(); } </script>

<input type="button" value="Click" onclick="btn_reset()">

If you add a JavaScript function into the page that holds the two frames you can accomplish this.

In the parent page:

refreshResults = function () {
    resultFrame.location.reload();
}

and then call it from main.php like this:

parent.refreshResults ();
