location.href not working

[casbboy]

Have a simple javascript onClick that won't seem to work.

<a href="javascript:;" onClick="window.location.href='page.htm'">Add Another Insert</a> 

When you click on the link nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?


Thanks
Ryan

I'm confused as to what you're trying to do. You want the browser to go to another page when it's clicked? You don't need javascript for that.
Are you thinking of "wndow.open"? Or do you have a frame named "window"?

of corse that wont work because you set the href to "javascript:" this is sometimes fired insted of onClick. what you should use is:

<a href="#" onClick="window.location.href='page.htm';return false">Add Another Insert</a>

but like Mittineague said, you are probably trying to open a new window... why would you require javascript on a page if you dont need too? also this is commonly not search engine friendly.

A shorter version of that link that would work even more often would be:

<a href="page.htm">Add Another Insert</a>

I am attempting to hide the link with the javascript.
