How can I reload the page using JavaScript? I need a method that works in all browsers.

Answer.

JavaScript 1.0

window.location.href = window.location.pathname + window.location.search + window.location.hash;

// creates a history entry

JavaScript 1.1

window.location.replace(window.location.pathname + window.location.search + window.location.hash);

// does not create a history entry

JavaScript 1.2

window.location.reload(false);

// If we needed to pull the document from

// the web-server again (such as where the document contents

// change dynamically) we would pass the argument as 'true'.
