How can I make a button redirect my page to another page?

Javascript Problem Overview


I have been trying the following:

<form action="/home" class="inline">
    <button class="float-left submit-button" >Home</button>
</form>

It seems to work but it goes to the page "/home?"

Is there a better way for me to make a button inside a form make the page go to a new location?

Javascript Solutions


Solution 1 - Javascript

Just add an onclick event to the button:

<button onclick="location.href = 'www.yoursite.com';" id="myButton" class="float-left submit-button" >Home</button>

But you shouldn't really have it inline like that, instead, put it in a JS block and give the button an ID:

<button id="myButton" class="float-left submit-button" >Home</button>

<script type="text/javascript">
    document.getElementById("myButton").onclick = function () {
        location.href = "www.yoursite.com";
    };
</script>

Solution 2 - Javascript

try

<button onclick="window.location.href='b.php'">Click me</button>

Solution 3 - Javascript

Use this:

 <button onclick="window.location='page_name.php';" value="click here" />

Basically you are using javascript snippet to redirect and onclick event of the button to trigger it.

Solution 4 - Javascript

Just another variation:

    <body>
    <button name="redirect" onClick="redirect()">
   
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function redirect()
    {
    var url = "http://www.(url).com";
    window.location(url);
    }
    </script>

Solution 5 - Javascript

you could do so:

<button onclick="location.href='page'">

you could change the action attribute of the form on click the button:

<button class="float-left submit-button" onclick='myFun()'>Home</button>

<script>
myFun(){
$('form').attr('action','new path');
}
</script>
