Javascript / Client Side Development :: window.location.href with encode?


	window.location.href with encode? Hi, I have a pop up window, that window needs to refresh the parent window when opened, I'm doing the following: window.opener.location.href(window.opener.location.href); problem I'm having is that the parent url has a # sign in it, like: http://localhost/mysite/me.html#01 i need the #01 to stay in the url after the refresh, anyway to do this? i tried using escape(window.opener.location.href) but that didn't work, as it escaped everything including the :// in http:// i also tried window.opener.location.href(window.opener.location.protocol + "//" + window.opener.location.hostname + window.opener.location.pathname); problem with that was i lost the #01 in the url, pathname didn't include it... any ideas?
