document: Document utility functions

Internet Explorer features a number of inconsistencies with some common document operations, these methods allow you to work around these problems in a platform-independent manner.

API

reload

Platforms: Browser Only

document.reload()

Internet Explorer's implementation of document.reload() only refreshes the static content of a page. This method will reload a page and force all scripts to be re-evaluated as well.

location

Platforms: All

document.location(success, error)

Arguments:

• success (function(location)) -- callback to be invoked when no errors occurs
• error (function(content)) -- called with details of any error which may occur

Internet Explorer versions 9 and later aborts page loading with a permission denied message if the document location is accessed from within an iframe. This function provides a workaround which functions correctly under all browsers.

Error object properties:

• statusCode: Status code returned from the server.
• content: Content returned from the server (if available).

Example:

forge.document.location(function(location) {
    forge.logging.log(location.href);
  }, function(error) {
    alert('Failed to get document location: '+error.message);
  }
});
