Jquery: reload location when window is resizing - firefox won't work!

JavaScript
1

Hi,
I wonder why firefox won’t work with this script below, but it works on IE, Safari, and Chrome instead?

$(document).ready(function(){
	$(window).resize(function(){	
		location.reload();	
	});	
	googleMap();
});

The reason to reload the page is to reload the google map when the window is being resized.

Here is the link to look at,

It would be appreciated if you know the way to get around to it. thanks.

You can manually assign the url. Firefox explcitly revents reload from within the resize event. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=258917

window.location = “url…”

You might consider seeing if there is a way to just have the google maps application readjust itself instead of reloading the page.

oic got it thanks. here is my solution instead of reload the page,

$(document).ready(function(){
	$(window).resize(function(){	
	googleMap();
	});	
	googleMap();
});

just ‘reloading’ the function googleMap in the resize() :smiley:

thanks.
