I have a form accessed from a details page, with a confirmation message as the submit rule.  
I would like the details page to refresh after submitting the form. This works if the submit rule redirects to the parent page, but not with a confirmation message.  
Does anyone have any code to refresh a details view after submitting?  
Thanks.

Notice the frogs are croaking, thats a shame. I too would like immediate screen updates on submission rather than going back and forwards through scenes

Hello Craig,

you can add an action link on the detail page.

and trigger the click function after the form is submitted.

we already discuss this on the below page

> Does anyone know how to trigger a refresh of a view based on the clicking of an action button? @CarlHolmes’s awesome video shows how to do it based on a form submission, but this is based on an action button click. I know you can do it by redirecting to the same page, but since this is a child page that’s not an option. Thank you!!

Little javascript is used to click trigger that links automatically.

Regards,

I was investigating a solution for this one today without needing the action link.  
Here’s my snippet of JS:
