To refresh a view on click with Knockout.js, you can use a combination of data binding and event handling in your view model.


First, create a click event binding in your HTML element that you want to trigger the refresh on:

1
<button data-bind="click: refreshData">Refresh Data</button>


Next, in your Knockout view model, define a function called refreshData that will be called when the button is clicked. Inside this function, you can update any observable properties that are bound to your view:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
function ViewModel() {
    var self = this;
    
    self.data = ko.observableArray([1, 2, 3]);
    
    self.refreshData = function() {
        // Perform any data refreshing logic here
        self.data([4, 5, 6]);
    }
}

ko.applyBindings(new ViewModel());


Now, when the button is clicked, the refreshData function will be called and the data property will be updated with the new values. This will trigger a refresh of the view, as any elements bound to the data observableArray will be automatically updated with the new values.
