onLoad query

**glenvern** · 10-20-2012 10:18 AM

I have an onLoad in the Body tag which works fine in IE but not in any other browser (FFox or Chrome). is this an IE only event or should it work in other browsers?...

<body onLoad="location.href('http:..etc...html')">

Any help please..

thanx..

Other browsers might require 'document.location.href'.

If you want to redirect users from one page to another, a setting in your .htaccess file would be best.

Easiest is:

Code:

Redirect 301 /oldpage.html http://www.example.com/newpage.html

Note that the 'oldpage.html' reference uses a file path, but the destination 'newpage.html' requires a complete URL starting with 'http://'.

location.href is not a fuction. It should look like this:

Code:

location.href = 'http:..etc...html'

To avoid some suspicious and if you have a jquery reference you can try this:

Code:

      $(document).ready(function(){
              window.location.href = "....";
       });

You can also use it like this: (without jquery)

Code:

window.onload = myFunction;

function myFunction() {
window.location.href = "....";
}

In both cases forget please by the onLoad attribute from < body > element
