Closing the child window and Refreshing parent window.

As we all know there are many window properties are available so it is quite easy even i had thought same thing but while implementing i faced many issue so i thought of sharing.

Below are few window property which are useful.

·         window.opener refers to the window that called window.open( ... ) to open the window from which it's called
·         window.parent refers to the parent of a window in a <frame> or <iframe>
·         window.top refers to the top-most window from a window nested in one or more layers of <iframe> sub-windows.

Lets say there is button on account "Change Account Name" ,On clicked one popup is opening and which would allow you to change Account name and one button "Save" is there in popup window. On clicked child window will be closed and account name will updated with the new name.

Approach:-
Step-1 Create vf page

<apex:page standardController="Account" extensions="PopuptestForAccount" showHeader="false" sidebar="false">
   
<script type="text/javascript">
       
     function Callmefunc(){
        window.top.location.href = "/"+'{!account.ID}';
       window.close();// optional.not required but better to keep it. 
     }
   </script>
    <apex:form > 
    <apex:pagemessages />
        <apex:pageBlock id="testblock">
            <apex:pageBlockSection >
                <apex:inputField value="{!account.name}"/>
                <apex:commandButton value="save"  action="{!savingAccount}" oncomplete="Callmefunc();" />
            </apex:pageBlockSection> 
        </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>
Step-2:-Create an extension class
public class PopuptestForAccount{
    public Account account{get;set;}
    public PopuptestForAccount(ApexPages.StandardController controller){
        this.account = (Account)controller.getRecord(); 
    }
    public PageRefeRence savingAccount(){
       
        if(account.name == ''){
            ApexPages.Message myMsg = new ApexPages.Message(ApexPages.Severity.Error,'You must enter some value...');
            ApexPages.addMessage(myMsg);
        }
        else{
            upsert account;
            
        }
         return null;
    }
}
Step-3 :-Create custom button on account and choose above page as content source.
