frame

I have a WPF page that contains a Listbox and a frame. The frame has various pages loaded into it determined by the selection within the Listbox.

Each page within the frame has a variety of different input boxes and has a Save Cancel button. When the Save button is clicked I need the content to be saved to the database and the Listbox in the parent page to be refreshed to reflect the new data.

Saving the data is easy but how do I initiate a refresh on the contents of the Listbox in the parent page when calling it from the page that inside the frame?

I need to somehow be able to access the parent pages controls to do this.

Any ideas?
