  I don't think that the reload method works in IE, that maybe why it isn't working for you. Try using:

  parent.location = "/path/to/the/newpage.aspx";

  NO Luxk again!! Let me explain better what is my situation: 1) I have a aspx file that loads a ascx file and witch contains a IFRAME (p.e. pageFrame.ascx). 2) The IFRAME source is a aspx file that loads another ascx file (p.e. pagePane.ascx). 3) Is in the pagePAne.ascx file that i try to reload the explorer. But i can't load. For example, the parent.location = "xpto.aspx"; give me a error in the IFRAME: "Bad Request(Invalid URL)"!!! In the pagePane.ascx.vb i have:

  temp = "<script language='Javascript'>"
  temp += "  parent.location = '~/Desktopdefault.aspx';"
  temp += "</script>"
  
  
  Response.Redirect(temp)

  Is this the best way!? Conclusion: With the parent.location, the errors are show in the IFRAME and not in the principal page! Therefore... Helppppppp.... :)

  Oops, forgot to say that you have to provide a URL as the parameter for Response.Redirect(), not HTML!! Place the script in a page of some sort (e.g. .html, .asp, .aspx) and then redirect to that.

  The best way for that is to "RegisterStartupScript": Dim temp As String temp = "<script language='Javascript'>" temp += " alert();" temp += "</script>" RegisterStartupScript("Test", temp) I will try this if works in a ascx file!

  You are best using the IsStartupScriptRegistered method before RegisterStartupScript, to ensure that only a single instance of the script is added to the Page (in case there is more than one instance of the Control).

  "RegisterStartupScript is not declared"!!! If I change the Inherits of the class, all the class don't work, if i import System.web.ui.page, the "RegisterStartupScript" is in the same (not declared)! When a person is new at this, is tuff!!
