Modalframe unbeforeunload event for own module [#1386718]

I would like to automatically refresh my datatables when the modalframe is closed. I saw the best way is to use the onbeforeunload module / event but I have no idea ho to find out if a modalframe is closed or the parent window. Is there a simple example somewhere or has anyone some hints or code how to find out if a modalframe is closed?

thx in advance for any help

Actually, what you want to do is pass an 'onSubmit' function to Drupal.modalFrame.open() when opening your modal. That function will get called when the frame is closed. For example:

Drupal.modalFrame.open({
  // ... all the other arguments ...
  onSubmit: function (args, statusMessages) {
    // this will happen when the frame closes.
  }
});
