Make use of javascript and you can easily do it
call the following function on your button click
<script language="javascript">
function RefreshParent()
{
window.parent.location.href = window.parent.location.href;
}
</script>
From the cs code if you are opening the aspx page in the iframe
Page.RegisterStartupScript("RefreshParent","<script
language='javascript'>RefreshParent()</script>");
Its explained very well in the following links:
link 1
link 2
Hope it helps.
For some reason the javascript function shown in earlier answers did not work for me (although the function was called). However, this worked for me:
function RefreshParent()
{
// Was: window.parent.location.href = window.parent.location.href;
parent.location.reload();
}
I had to add it near the start of my HTML (near the end of the HTML didn't work, as it was not yet rendered).
I used this C# code to call it, which is based on earlier answers but updated to use the current API which has an extra initial paramter, "type":
ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "RefreshParent", "<script language='javascript'>RefreshParent()</script>");
