jQuery button shows and reloads iframe

Question

I have a button which when clicked the first time displays an iframe. The source of the iframe is a text log file.

I would like that whenever the same button is clicked/toggled, the iframe would be refreshed too in case the log file is updated.

Here is my code so far:

HTML

<button id="displaylog">Display Log</button>

<iframe id="ramka" src="@Url.Action("OpenFile", "File")" style="display:none"></iframe>

jQuery

$(document).ready(function () {

    $("#displaylog").click(function () {
        $("#ramka").show();
    });

});

Just use document.getElementById(FrameID).contentDocument.location.reload(true); to reload your iframe — Just code

To Reload an iFrame in jQuery

$( '#ramka' ).attr( 'src', function ( i, val ) { return val; });

You should be able to achieve it with this short piece of code JavaScript

document.getElementById("ramka").src = document.getElementById("ramka").src

Jquery

$("#ramka").prop("src", $("#ramka").prop("src"))
