small login script

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Oct 18.2007

I am having trouble getting this small login script to work – simply – someone enters a password in the field name ‘ftext’ and the secure webpage opens.
I am getting the If / else statments working fine – but the url doesn’t open.

if replace:

location.href=’http://www.yahoo.com‘;

with

alert(“Good!”);

The function works? How do i get it to open the URL?
I’m a newbie.. any help is appreciated..

<script language = “javascript”>
function Login1()
{
var ftext = document.login.ftext.value;

if(ftext == ‘enter’)
{
location.href=’http://www.yahoo.com‘;
}
else
{
alert(“incorrect password”);
}
}

</script>

<FORM NAME=”login” onSubmit=”return Login1()”>
login: <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=ftext><BR>
<INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE=”Done”>
</FORM>

@Declan1991Oct 18.2007 — You are probably better off to use window.location.replace() or window.location = ;

@metalbuckleauthorOct 18.2007 — I actually tried window.location = ; it doesn't work either..

i put in the password 'enter' and it just submits to the form and goes no where...

Actually i looked it this again and i need the URL to open in a popup window..

I have a funny feeling that it should be 'menubar="no"' etc. too, but I'm not sure.
