window.location problem

I have a simple form in which if I click one button, I am supposed to go to other web page. I have used javascript function to this. I could do this with a normal html button where my page is not redirected if I use jsf command button. Why such discrepency? window.open is working where as window.location.href is nto working. Please let me know.

Hi,

Can you post the code on what you trying to do?

Anil.

<%@ taglib prefix="f" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="h" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" %>
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>

<script type="text/javascript">
function function2() {
window.location.href = "http://www.mozilla.org";

}
</script>

<f:view>
<html>

<body>
<form id="myForm">
<h:panelGrid>
<h:commandButton value="checkStatus"

onclick

="function2()" />
</h:panelGrid>

</form>

</body>
</html>
</f:view>

This function works perfectly fine when I tried testing like below:

Why it is not working when i use onclick as below:

Anything wrong in using onclick from a JSF commandButton?

Hi

You can use

or

[code]
window.location='yourPage.faces';
[code]

try this one.It will solve your problem

Thanks Venkat. I tried both, they are not working for me.

Script should be declared within the HEAD tag within the HTML tag

[code]
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function function2() {
window.location.href = "http://www.mozilla.org";

}
</script>
</head>
<body>
....
</body>
</html>

yes, I have placed my javascript function within html head tag. STill wondering why it is nto working.
