reload parent window from within an iframe

parent.location.href=parent.location.href

gives a smoother result than

parent.location.reload()

the latter forces a complete reload while the first seems to update more effectively almost like ajax.

I could achieve this by reloading the page using javascript

parent.location.reload();

then i fired a trigger to open the target iframe

$("#log-inout").trigger("click");

I needed such system for a peculiar condition. This might help others in similar conditions.
