(no prefix) Redirect (or anything) after submit.

I am attempting to redirect a page after a user clicks on a submit button.

I have a button:

<input id=”SubmitButton” type=”submit” class=”button” name=”-Edit” value=”Submit” onClick=”toSubmitted();”

And a function:

function toSubmitted() {
document.myForm.action = some URL that has to do with a Filemaker Pro backend.
document.myForm.submit();
window.location = “www.google.com”;
}

Supposed to submit myForm, which sends necessary data to the FileMaker backend, and then I am wanting to redirect to a new page immediately after that.

The “window.location = “www.google.com”;” line does not seem to function in its present location.

?

@FangMay 28.2010 — Redirect or submit, not both. To do both use a server script.

@KorMay 28.2010 — Or you may use AJAX to submit and after you get any kind of response from the server-side file, redirect via JavaScript.

Success!
