Redirecting a page using ajax

[baiju]

Hi

I done a login form. User name and password checking ajax script.
If password is wrong it showing correctly.
My prob is user name and password is correct, i want to redirect the page to members area

Use this javascript code: [code]location.href = 'new location here';[/code]

Wrong forum by the way.

ajax is not a scripting lanuage it's an exstention of javascript.

Nor is it an extension, it is a combination of technologies. It uses JavaScript's XmlHttpRequest and it uses XML.

Actually... I've been using AJAX techniques for quite some time and I have YET to use XML with it.

Hi,

i guess you would have two JS functions one for request to the server and other for getting back the responce from the server. In the JS function which receives the responce you can user location.href='file.php'

Then I guess it techinically wouldn't be AJAX but just the use of XmlHttpRequest as AJAX is short for "Asynchronous JavaScript and XML". If you remove one of the parts then it wouldn't be AJAX. I don't use XML myself either though...

Someway of topic perhaps...

There are many ways of twisting this - if you use responcetext and get html in return you would perhaps call it AJAH (AJAXH for xhtml ??) or something, i still feel that i can call my usage of AJAX as AJAX even if i don't return XML - the principal of usage is the same exept for the way you treat the returned responce. If the responce is echoed out or adjusted further with a javascript is a matter of habbit if you ask me. I try to do things as little complicated as possible.

You can work with header("location:url");
