window.location.replace - absolutely not working
I am close to pulling my hair out with this autorun menu I'm working on.
I finally have the button problem worked out, and the problem with the forms in my other post.
Now, though, I have a new problem.
I've been to a few different sites to confirm syntax of window.location.replace, and have copied and pasted code into my script to first make sure thiers is working right -- it was. I made the changes to the path so teh correct page would load and for some unknown reason the dang redirect is not working at all now.
Here's the code:
Code:function Form1_Validator001(theForm) { // Test PW for validity. pw = new String(theForm.pw.value); if(pw == "") { alert("A password is required to install this software."); return (false); } if(pw == "aeiou") { // pw ok, do stuff alert("about to make redirect line call..."); doRedirect(); alert("and back to form validator loop..."); // alert("i just called the window.location line... and will now continue..."); return (true); } else { alert("Incorrect password"); return (false); } } function doRedirect() { var path = "Support/Extras/Program/program.html"; alert("about to issue redirect..."); window.location.replace( path ); alert("redirect issued..."); }
Please help, I'm losing my mind with this!Last edited by mstembri; Jan 23, 2002 at 22:01.

Is IE playing tricks on me?
This works great by itself:
<script>
window.location.replace("otherpage.html");
</script>
But stick it in the example above and it flat don't work.
Please, please help. It's late and all I want to do is finish this stinkin' script and hit the sack.Last edited by mstembri; Jan 23, 2002 at 22:16.
