JavaScript – How to Refresh a Page

How do I refresh a page using JavaScript?

Best Answer

Use location.reload().

For example, to reload whenever an element with id="something" is clicked:

$('#something').click(function() {
    location.reload();
});

The reload() function takes an optional parameter that can be set to true to force a reload from the server rather than the cache. The parameter defaults to false, so by default the page may reload from the browser's cache.
